Operator: Claire Sutton

Here is the Dean of Six meters in the Region, he was the First W8 to obtain WAS on Six. He had the rig on Six 24-7. One could hear the white noise from the front door.

Here is the W8CMS 80' tower with stacked 7 element 6 meter beams!

Claire got several generations interested in 6 Meters. He loved hamfests, espeically Dayton and attended most of them until his death...
