Yesterday, I asked people on the reflector what to do on six meters as I just put up a 3-element beam at 25 feet with a TV rotator by noon. Well, I guess you could call it serendipity, but yesterday there was a good opening on 6 meters after about 2200 hours till about 0300 hours. Most of it SSB, a couple of CW contacts. I worked 46 stations. States were: CA, OR NV, ID, MT, AZ, CO, WY, MN, WI, MS, MDC - that is 12 states. A bunch of grid squares.
The K3 performed great.
I felt like I was a Novice in 1965...working states (and grids) coloring in the states and the grid.
Thanks for all the advice for VE7CC (I had the program but it was not set for 6 meters) and DX Sherlock. They proved to be a great help.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply. If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it. If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense. Is Common Sense divine?
Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind. - J. Wolf
