[WVDXA] On 6m timing is everything

[Philip M. Roberts]

Back in Nov. of 79 I worked 2 Ja's on 6m the opening lasted 3 minutes.

Tonight when I turned the rig on 6m was so quiet I thought the 
FTV1000 had gone south. Then FM5AA blasted my ears at 10 over 5-9. He 
was the strongest signal I have ever heard on 6 from that region in 5 
minutes he was Gone with the Ether. ( sorry Miss Mtchell.)

I heard VP2MDD and FY1FL calling CQ with no takers.

E skip has a small footprint. I heard and worked FJ5DX 5/5 but WA8WV 
could not hear Phil  Likewise I hear guys in Columbus working 
stations I can not hear. I guess it is the nature of the Eskip beast. 
Pete worked VKs no one else could hear a few years back.

Just don't give up just keep tuning.
