Hello!

I passed the Technician (no code) exam back in November and I'm saving up for 
my first transceiver now.  An obvious first move would be to buy a 2m, or 
possibly 70cm handheld, but both bands are very quiet in my neck of the woods 
(East central Illinois).  I can't help wondering whether 6m might have more 
potential for me, locally and possibly even DX on occasion.  I would welcome 
any comments or observations people might have on this subject.
