    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.
