One way might be use of all the reflectors from VHF to microwave - and many
were used I might add. It appeared to me, having operated for brief periods
Sat afternoon, again that evening, early Sunday AM (early meaning 4am until
7am) I heard no activity on any band except K1DQV calling endless CQ's on 2M.
First real activity I observed here began around 7:30am Sunday - almost no
activity Sunday afternoon and only marginal activity Sunday evening. I am in
FM18vr (with 10 bands available). So, though I don't have an answer to Buddy's
question, my thoughts are we have 3 ARRL VHF and up contests each year and it
shouldn't be too very difficult to get the word out. There's an old saying I
learned from my Drill Sergeant: tell'm once, tell'm again, then tell'm a third
time till it sinks in! Maybe we need lots of "telling". My thoughts. Owen,
K3CB
