I’ve spent the last few months working on a new version of my book Capture the Magic of Six Meters. It has a new title and substantially more content. It’s titled Magic Band Revealed — Everything You Need to Know for 6 meter Amateur Radio DXing.

Magic Band Full-Color Paperback

The paperback version is available on Amazon at the lowest price possible, with no royalties to the author. It is full color throughout. Every illustration is easily understood. Here’s the Amazon link — Magic Band Revealed.

It’s also available for PDF download, including an expanded, detailed table of contents and a figures list not included in the print version. You can learn more and download the book at Magic Band Revealed — eBook Download.

Capture the Magic of Six Meters was downloaded over 7,000 times, from its publication in August 2020 to the introduction of version 2 in July 2022. Version 2 downloads reached nearly 1,000. This retitled version adds separate chapters on FT8/FT4, MSK144, and Q65 operation. It also has new chapters on contesting, rover operation, and awards. New appendices are provided on SDR operations and EZNEC antenna modeling. If you liked the earlier versions, you’ll want to take advantage of this one.
