[Mldxcc] Fwd: WARNING: Geomagnetic K-index of 6 (G2)

[Dick Wilson]

Should be recovering by Sat. AM. Contest starts at 1800Z (11 AM local)
and continues through Sunday.
Get on & work what you can, when you can. Some watch football games...
with sound off...while tuning.
Call CQ. Activity begets activity.
