[CQ-Contest] [PVRC] A DX Contest on the WARC bands -- A terrible idea

[ktfrog007 at aol.com]

Has anyone noticed the uptick in activity on the bands due to the SEDXC 100w/wire operating event?

There was an extreme overreaction to this event.  All the HF bands are underutilized and in need of a shot in the arm.  We should be more supportive of attempts to encourage more activity, WARC bands, too.  30m is very underutilized, except for the FT8 crowd..

Ken, AB1J

It might be good to notice that this is strictly a local event:

------------------
Who:    Licensed SEDXC members and licensed members of other Atlanta 
Area clubs are welcome to participate.
