6 Meters is a funny band. When it is open, it does not much to work great
distances. When it is dead, local opertion is even hard.

It is a fun band when you catch it open.


With a small beam, and less the 100 watts, he should be able to work
almost any were in the continent.

When the band is open of course, you spend more time listening to
static then working.

Oh, ya, we are talking SSB. It takes a better opening to work FM, but
I've done it. In that case hang around 52.525
