Comments:
Another January VHF contest with the usual snow and freezing WX in WNY.
This contest has the tendency to be a 6m and 2m contest. I say that because of
the folks who seem to be stuck on Digital, FT8/MSK. It's extremely difficult to
move stations above 144 MHz. Calling CQ on 6/2m CW is almost fruitless. I
usually work lot's of VE3's on cw but no takers this year. Didn't even work K1RZ
who I usually log with no problem.
I used FT8/MSK144 to pick up needed mults. It's great technology and it works
but limits usage on the higher bands.
I found that N1MM logs the wrong mode after switching back to SSB/CW. It still
thinks it's in digital mode tho reading the radio display.
Thank You to the Rovers, without them it could be a boring contest. I had fun
but would still like to utilize the 8 bands more above 2m I have.
Looking forward to June VHF. Thank You for all the Q's
