Hi Everyone,
I think a lot of good points and suggestions have been brought up concerning
VHF contesting. I am sure we have the expertise in this group to figure out a
way to promote contesting and enhance activity. Unfortunately, it does not
appear to me that the ARRL will take our concerns serious based on recent
developments.
I suggest that a volunteer committee be formed to study the situation over
the next several months and offer a proposal to the VHF community. Assuming
the league does not listen, there is absolutely nothing wrong with moving
forward as a separate group or organization. Since we have little or no
magazine coverage to promote contesting, I think it is a good time to unite
and take control of our contest future.
People contest for various reasons, but all of them has one thing in common
and that is to achieve a goal. Each of us need to set our own goals and not
be afraid to fail. If two people or more have the same goal, then it is
called competition.
