This week we has some good discussion on recent six meter propagation as the band had a very strong opening just prior to the net. Kevin, WBØOSP introduced some to vhfdx.net where you can see propagation paths on VHF as they are reported on the DX cluster. Several commented that this was a very useful site. Brandon, KCØUAX commented that he did not hear any skip on FM this evening. Kevin, WBØOSP noted that he was hearing skip on 52.525 up until just a few minutes prior to the net. SAP, WAØSAP was a little scratchy into the repeater, and when looking out his window figured out why. His portable beam had fallen over and was laying on the ground! Oh, well... it still worked. Dave, KE7ABH checked in via phone patch with the help of Dave, WBØQIR. So far they've checked in via two meter to six meter cross-band, EchoLink and phone patch. What will they think of next?
