6 Meters is OPEN

[w9cll]

I work lots of stations that are using an HF antenna on 6 meters. When it's wide open it doesn't take much. It's after all The Magic Band.

I used to four elements on 6 but those days ate gone, maybe I will make a quick dipole.

That map shows lots of contacts but if you check the mode 99.9% are the useless FT8 Crap. {:>(

All you must do is set filter (Mode/Props drop down) to NOT Show Any DIGI JUNK

My ICOM 7700 will do PSK & RTTY without a computer but it never will as long as I own it. I own 45 Astatic D-104 desk microphones,7 HEIL studio microphones,2 headsets,an EV RE20 & a SHURE Super 55 so it's obvious that I like microphones & they are made for talking or performing & I do both with them. If I want to use a computer to talk with another computer I'll do what I'm doing here or with an email. I believe FT8,FT4 & other digital modes are for those who are LAZY & will not work for a tough contact & I feel if it's worth having it's worth working for it. If you work me it will be on PHONE ONLY on ANY Band. 73 {:>)

I heard you somewhere after 9 am. Tried to get back to you and heard you asking for the station trying to call (it was me) but conditions changed that quick.
Good to hear your voice though brother.

Email me anytime. I'm good on QRZ.

Have a safe and blessed weekend brother.
