A chance opening on 6m and a thoroughly enjoyable hour over lunchtime working sporadic-e on the "Magic Band". This wasn't on a dedicated 6m antenna either, as I just used my 40m Off Centre Fed Dipole which happens to tune up on 6m 👍🏻If you haven't already, it's worth trying what antennas you already have....you may be surprised.
This is one of many ham/amateur radio related videos on my channel, which is all about simple practical projects and operating, both in the shack and out portable & mobile. If you like what you see, please give it a like 👍🏻 and subscribe to the channel if you're not already, and remember to hit the bell 🔔 so you’re notified of new videos as soon as they're published and you don't miss out.
Thank you for watching 🙂
