Bruce, That is excellent! Sounds as if you are really HOLDING DOWN THE FORT for the 6M and 2M bands (and 1.25M and 10M FM too!) in your area.
That's really good to see. I do the same thing for 70cm...in a much smaller way. I continuously monitor the National Simplex Calling Frequency on 70cm (446.00 FM Simplex). I live near the freeway (I-96) and get what I term the "occassional traveling QSO". I.e., first I will hear one mobile station talking to another, and when I hear the second, I may join-in for a three-way QSO... Then they are lost in reverse order as they both drive out of range. Talk about lonely (except around Dayton time)...I usually fall out of my chair when the squelch breaks!
