I'm at our cottage on Beaver Island (EN75gp) and after some frantic antenna troubleshooting yesterday seem to have a working 2M station with 500W amp to squirt signals at meteor trails.  I'm planning to be on 144.150 most mornings by 1100Z for the next week.

I also have 6M but the amp is a bit flaky and may or may not be usable.  If things work, I'll try calling on 6 as well.

I'll try to monitor ping jockey but the internet is a bit flaky here, so rather than looking for skeds, I'll mainly call CQ using first segment, swinging the beam from East through South to West as the morning progresses.

I'm looking for folks to talk to, so spread the word.  And I'll be happy to try FT8, SSB, or CW as well as MSK144.

So I see and PSKreporter was showing regular pile of people on in MI.  Saw that N2CB and you both decoded me.  I saw a little bit of traces but not enough to decode and some meteor pings as well.
