Hello everyone....I have been informed by a W7, who I respect, that
since FKS441 is essentially dead, the 6M meteor scatter calling
frequency has been moved back to 50.260MHz. I think this is a great
idea as the ever upward trend for every new mode is giving my antennas
fits. Is this idea widespread, or is this just a few mavericks that are
trying to get away from the mob?
However, there will surely be a lot of people(like me) that just heard
of this idea and will still be hanging out at 50.280MHz. This may(or may
not) be a small problem for the upcoming June and July contests. I
always operate on 50.265MHz(surely everyone knows that by now), so such
a change will not effect me very much. I continue to believe that
PingJockey is the way around all these problems.
If anyone knows the straight scoop on all this, please let me know.
GL to everyone in the contest.....and be sure to work us on 6M on
50.265MHz if you are within range. {sarc on} If you are not in range,
move closer so that you are!! {sarc off} All contacts gratefully
appreciated.
