SB QST @ ARL $ARLB024 ARLB024 W1AW to begin scheduled transmissions on 6 meters starting January 2, 2018 ZCZC AG24 QST de W1AW ARRL Bulletin 24 ARLB024 From ARRL Headquarters Newington CT December 1, 2017 To all radio amateurs SB QST ARL ARLB024 ARLB024 W1AW to begin scheduled transmissions on 6 meters starting January 2, 2018 Beginning with the 9 AM EST fast code practice on Tuesday, January 2, 2018, W1AW will add 6 meters - specifically 50350 kHz - to its regular CW code practice, and CW, digital and phone bulletin transmission schedule. Prior to late 1989, W1AW had a presence on 6 meters for all its CW practice, and regular bulletins. Since that time however, the station was absent on 6 meters, with the exception of regular visitor operations and contests. In addition to providing regularly scheduled transmissions on 6 meters, another goal is to act as a beacon on 6 meters, especially from the Northeast US. Signal reports will be welcome. A web page that will allow listeners to provide signal reports will be made available after the start date. Reports may also be emailed to W1AW at, w1aw@arrl.org. NNNN /EX
