Having done quite a lot of both over the years, I would suggest that VHF/UHF 
is just as challenging as HF, but the challenges are different, i.e., 
extremely weak EME signals in quasi-white noise vs. extremely weak DX signals 
in 
atmospheric noise and heavy QRM on MF/HF.  (OK, for you 6-meter buffs out 
there, 
there IS heavy QRM on 6).
