The Magic Band of 6
Meters has seen growth in activity, particularly during the past five
years, to the point where there have been more clubs taking equipment
for 6-meter operation during Field Day, the premier Amateur Radio event.
1998 may well mark the year in which the turning point occurred for 6
Meters, when it became one of the premium bands for clubs to operate on
during Field Day. This is because many clubs in the U.S. and Canada that
remembered to take 6-meter gear with them were rewarded with two
back-to-back days of Sporadic-E activity on 27-28 June that was both
long and had wide coverage. Based on the logs generated from various
clubs throughout North America, it was hard to imagine that there was
any area that did not see some sort of skip activity during the 24-hour
period! The Magic Band at many locations became the supernatural band!
