Every peice of information that I can find says that 6 meters is a VHF
band.
Why would anyone even consider including it in an HF contest?
More so why would anyone consider putting it in a single band contest
10
meters?
Hey how about the 160/6 meter contest! Thats a good idea too!
Or perhaps adding 20 meters into the VHF contest I like that then I
could
participate in
a VHF contest and maybe win on a single band entry!
Yes single band 20 meter in the VHF contest.
I refuse to subscribe to any sort of consipracy theory but to get on 6
meters competitively I would:
1 Need to modify my antenna system
2 Get an amplifier built for 6 meters
3 Get a radio for 6 meters
4 Try to remember the band edges
All kinding asside I would definately support a single band 6 meter
contest
ala the 10 and 160 tests.
And I might even participate in that one.
Flames are OK but keep your SPAM to yourself
