The K4N grid-pedition to rare EL84 is now on 6 meters 50.165. Location is the Dry Tortugas the western end of the Florida keys approachable only by boat. They are expected to be on through 10 AM local Monday Jul 15. I worked ’em this morning with a good signal but in and out. If you hear Florida stations chances are they will be workable.

Thanks for the heads-up, John. I didn’t even know they were on. So far I haven’t heard them but I’ve only been listening for a couple of hours.

Nice going Pat. Long live 6 meters. –John,W1XX
I just worked him SSB. S3 with rapid QSB here. I was using the amp. I tried CW, but QSB took him away. 5 ele at 30 ft.
Thanks John…

Still there at 0000Z. I heard him earlier before John mentioned it here on the website. But didn’t realize where he was. 100W at 60 feet. Thanks John!
