Joe, my good 1958 memories include working a JA on 6M AM with my home-brew EMT ground plane, GlobeScout 680A, SX-99 and convertor. Like all the other comments I never considered conditions changing. I had a 10M AM rig in my first car, in 1959, and worked the world on 29.6 AM. In fact I met the father of my future bride on 10M AM.
Wayne will have to SQUISH this one for sure. Oh, wait a minute, Wayne started this one:) 73 - Mike - K9JRI > On Sep 14, 2018, at 12:48 AM, Joe K2UF <j...@k2uf.com> wrote: > > I remember working western Europe on six in the mid 50s.
