Amateur Radio / Re: 6M Propagation?

« on: October 14, 2021, 2135 UTC »

I am hoping it will come alive as well. The propagation in improving and is expected to continue improving in this band in the future. I did catch the tail end of a CQ just above 50 MHz a few weeks ago but missed it. I am trying to make is a habit to visit this band more often.

Here is a challenge, there is a continuous beacon transmitter in my area that you can try and DX.

I usually paste the link, select all of the text with the mouse then click on the "Insert Image" button (the one with the picture frame). This will automatically insert the tags in the proper location within the selected text.
