[RTTY] HK0NA band slots

[Don AA5AU]

There are only 27 available band slots for them.  It appears they do not plan to operate 6M RTTY or 160M RTTY.  Last time I looked, four people have actually worked them in all 27 slots.  It would be a neat thing to do, but I doubt I'll get a 6 meter opening.  Hoping they'll come up on 160M SSB although my expectations of working them are not high.  I was able to work them on 160M CW using my 80 meter inverted vee and very old Heathkit antenna tuner with 400 watts out of the amp and no idea what was actually getting radiated at the antenna.  Heck, it surprised me so much to work them on 160M CW that I also worked an XE (which confirmed on LoTW already), a 6Y, and HU2DX.  Might be time to install a "real" 160 meter antenna.  That should be interesting considering I have little or no room for one.
