I can always get into to Portland and Seattle on 6 meters from my 2475 foot elevation NW of Spokane with a clear shot to the West. Glad to check in and see how things are now.

One of the major problems in being near Spokane is that most of the 6 meter SSB or CW activity goes between Portland and Seattle so everyone points their beams North or South, at least during contests. The weakest reception from a Yagi is from its sides – that where we are to most of you here near Spokane.
I am in Nine Mile Falls which, obviously from its name, has a dam on the Spokane River 9 miles Northwest from the somewhat center of Spokane.
So please point your beams East once in a while for the net. I point at 270 degrees for Seattle so that is 90 degrees for you there.

I was wondering if there is any interest in doing a 6 Meter HF net once a week to help scratch the 6 meter itch.

    I am not currently on 6 meters, but I do think a net is a good idea. I hear people talking on the local 2m/70cm FM repeaters mentioning that 6 meters is dead, yet I see posts on this list about who worked who on 6 meters on a fairly regular basis. You get that 6 meter net going, and I will spread the word to the locals in the Wenatchee area. I'm sure some would at least give it a try now and then.
