All very true but I would be amazed if there was not a locator map
sitting right in front of the operator. It's an
essential tool!
I accept that some respected HF operators might find VHF/UHF contesting
a bit too complicated though. Although
it has many similarities to HF, its mastery requires learning some
additional/different skills.
