[UK-CONTEST] Uk activity on VHF

[Don Field]

My thanks to Ray for clarifying his earlier statement.

There were 4 losses from the Committee last year (apart from my own handover
to Ed GW3SQX - my role was always a transitional one). G4PIQ, previous VHFCC
Chairman, who I asked to stay on pro-tem for transition purposes (but who
now wants to focus on work, family and WRTC - good luck, Andy), G4VXE who
was replaced by G3ZVW as RadCom Sport Radio columnist, MM0CCC who stepped
aside for domestic reasons and Bob G0ADH for health reasons and who, we
hope, will rejoin us when his health allows (again, we wish Bob well). All
have been replaced but, yes, we always welcome expressions of interest from
those who feel they have something to contribute. Probably the main gaps
right now (and we have advertised them in RadCom to no avail) are for
someone to handle trophies and someone to take on a publicity role (HQ did
get one expression of interest for the former, but it was withdrawn when it
was made clear that this was an unpaid volunteer role - same wage rate as
the rest of us :-) ). These are not necessarily Contest Committee roles as
such, but could be much broader. I would welcome volunteers!
