ARRL VHF Sweepsteaks this weekend June 13 - 14, 2020!

(1/2) > >>

ThaDood:
Good practice for the following weekend's Field Day,   https://contests.arrl.org/junvhf/   Now, can we hope for decent "E" and Tropo propagation for this? Rarely... Usually the Monday afterwards are when the VHF / UHF bands open up.

Josh:
Got my ticket the same day as the ct. Worked coast to coast 6m ssb with 3 watts, neat stuff. Otherwise the band was dead save for the few locals.

autovon:
10 and 6 have been doing pretty good for the last month or so.   Hopefully that keeps up!

ThaDood:
VHF High and UHF were wide open to my south this morning towards the VA and SE KY borders. The country bumpkin on 96.5FM Williamson, WV boomed in right over a local 96.5FM translator. And south is my geographically very worst direction. Will we have that this weekend? Murphy's Law says, NO!

chanito:
At 2246 UTC 6m is dead here.


2m and 70cm as well.


It will likely be a bust unless something happens overnight or in the morning. Current DXMaps though shows a lot of DX between the East coast and Europe. Fingers crossed.
