[VHFcontesting] Rural area Sprinting is a waste of time

["Ken Sturgill" <ws4v@wk4w.com>]

Just got done with most boring 4 hours in contesting history. Heard 5 
stations, worked 3 and the other two were working the stations calling CQ. I 
called at length with no taker. 100 watts, 15 db gain antennas and hilltop 
location. Had a great time in the January VHF Sweeps but this will be my 
last sprint. So few take an interest in sprints it isn't worth the effort. 
If I was in a urban area maybe there would be enough activity to keep my 
interest but not here in the backwoods.
