Six meters is VERY addictive. I started back in the late 60's with a
Lafayette 1-watt AM transceiver (HA-650), and worked all over the country
and even down into South America with just a squalo antenna on my Dad's
chimney in MD when the band would open. Now I just use a 6-meter dipole,
and I monitor six as much as I can. There have been some great openings
this summer - and you can find plenty of SSB and CW when the band opens.
Looking forward to the K3 where I can leave the second receiver on the SSB
calling frequency (50.125). I have a friend who has DCXX and WAC on 6
meters from here in the Dallas area.
