Live Schedule

April 1 - Aug 10 (Es Season)

- Currently the webcam will be active anytime I am in the shack. If the feed is online and suddenly goes "black", I am either recording a DX station for YouTube or I have went offline.

- Webcam is facing 17inch LCD monitor

For those of you that are new to Six, the Sporadic Es season is generally from late April until early August with a peak during June and early July. Openings can happen at anytime and can last for several days. Other times the band will be quiet for a few days at a time. Check the DX cluster often and I highly recommend joining the ON4KST Chat group.

Welcome to the live Audio and Video feed of my Icom 7700. When I am on the air you will hear and see everything I do. Also sometimes while I am not around, my radio will be left on the DX calling frequency 50.110.00 in monitoring position. The purpose of this video stream is to share with you my 6 Meter perspective from here in grid square FN25 and to help you monitor band conditions. There is about a 10-20 second delay from real time, so it is possible to transmit and hear yourself in the live feed if 6 meters is open to FN25.

Setup is Icom 7700 with 200 watts into M2 6M7 Yagi up 65 feet.

Enjoy and 73.
