I am the 2 meter band captain for W4NH. I would certainly classify us as
serious VHF and up contesters. We have FM available on many bands
(especially 2 meters) and work a fair number of FM contacts every contest.
In my book a point is a point and a multiplier is a multiplier no matter
what the mode. No mode snobs at W4NH.
