Hello Tony – I had no internet connection while I was in J6. You are in the log for this QSO. You were my second 6M QSO, following CT1HZE whom I worked at 1745Z! – My grid was FK94mc.

Here are some photos for your collection. I don’t have any taken from the 6M antenna level, but Mark and Kirk have some and will send them to me later. It’s pretty evident what the “J68AS 6M Beaming Europe” and “J68AS 6M Station” photos are. The one called “To Europe from Cooler thru WARC Antenna” isn’t so easy. It was taken from the deck below the 6M antenna, looking NE through the WARC Beam. The one called “To US from Cooler A3S tribander” is looking toward the US (~315 deg.) from the same level. The tribander was on the deck below. The “cooler” was the master bedroom where we went to get away from the heat and flying critters that feasted on our blood. It was the only air conditioned room and a much needed respite from the 95 F heat. Even though we had to duck to walk under the HF beams, they worked wonderfully. Hope these give you an idea of the hardships we endured to make QSOs, hi. 73, Scott – QSL via N9AG
