What has happened to the DX Window on six meters? States side stations
working stateside stations below 50.125. Holy Crap..

My guess is lots of people buying the newer HF rigs that also have 6 
meters who are very unfamiliar with the band ...

That's right and today's license examination questions don't even hint
about informal band plans or frequency coordination bodies ........only
FCC rules and regulations pertaining to band and class of station
license limits within the band. It's only going to get worse...........

Thats why we need to tell them nicely about the band plans.99 percent of

them plain don't know.Just help them out a little and most will be fine
AND 
give you a qso in the next contest.  Gregg  K9KL
