6 meter is VERY FAR AND FEW BETWEEN ,,,I have had my license for over 2 years now and have made a total of 4 contacts on 6 meter 3 were local guys also trying to make some DX and never did. They say that when 10 meter is open you can LISTEN on 6 and MIGHT get an opening,,,,which I did and didnt hear anything.
Save that cash and buy a radio accessory or a all band all mode that has 6 meter in it.
if you REALLY REALLY REALLY want a 6 meter rig look on ebay and find that Ranger 5054DX they are going cheap because people bought them and found out there is nothing there the 5054DX is the exact same board as the 2950DX and same chassis as well,,,
most ebay ads will say,,,I USED THIS RIG TO MOSTLY LISTEN ON THE 6 METER BAND,,,,
THEY AINT KIDDING <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin">
