LAST MINUTE NEWS FROM KOSOVO [edited]

 MONDAY JUNE 27, 2022
 Z66X - 6M FOCUSED OPERATION IS ON TRACK

 Adrian, KO8SCA, was sporadically active today as Z66X on HF SSB, while
making the last touches on the antennas and the station.

 The 6M antenna is now ready and it is a 7 element Innov Antennas (LFA-2)
with an 8.9m long boom provided by WiMo.

 Look for Z66X tomorrow (Tuesday) on regular HF bands only.

 Martti, OH2BH, and Ville, OH2MM, will arrive tomorrow, Tuesday, June 28,
2022 and will bring an Elecraft K3S radio and a SPE amplifier which will
be used for the 6M operation starting Wednesday June 29, 2022.

 The team will be active on FT8 on 50.313 MHz and 50.323 MHz as much
as possible but their pilot stations, K8MFO & OH1MA, will make QRG
announcements on the ON4KST reflector.

 Z66X will also show up occasionally, if the propagation permits, on
6M CW & SSB.

 The operation will go QRT on Monday July 4, 2022.
