About a year ago, I put a 3-el SteppIR with 6M element on a tower. Before that I worked a lot of 6M DX with my K3 by loading my 40M dipole. I made at least a half dozen QSOs from my QTH near San Francisco to the east coast, and worked several KH6. The SteppIR, of course, works better. :) 6M truly is a band that allows you to have a lot of fun with a modest antenna when it's open. That's why it's called the magic band. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
