[CQ-Contest] CQ WW VHF Recap for a Dozen participants

[Pete Smith]

I'm a little perplexed as to why the XML effort "favors HF" - rather than starting down another road, perhaps you should show them the error of their ways.

The problem, as I see it, is that you don't want the VHF guys going one way and the HF guys another - that helps neither, and can actually obstruct progress.
