[WVDXA] Stuff Heard on 6 M Mobile

[Charlie Young]

Well, I have yet to make a /m 6M qso, but have been hearing some stuff.
 
Last night, XE2WWW was holding forth on CW, while I was driving from Alum Creek to Southridge. He peaked about 569 and I had a couple of shots to call him, but he CQ'ed in my face, so he was not hearing me. 
 
This morning, I had solid copy on a CQ by the ZF2, but he was just above the noise level.  Only heard him CQ one time.   Also this AM, had solid copy on several CQ's from CY0X, at about 549, and called him a few times.  Again, CQ back in my face.  Maybe my screwdriver is acting like a dummy load?    In addition, I heard K4PI working EU from EM73.  I could not hear a trace of the DX. 
K4PI at times was 579, but lots of QSB.  All of the morning activity was heard from my hilltop, with the Trailblazer in the driveway. Seems like the QTH hears OK, so a yagi should do the trick. 
 
I think a little better conditions are needed to make DX Q's with 100W from the mobile, and will keep listening.
