[UK-CONTEST] Separate reflectors?

Hi,

Well there was/is a vhf contest reflector, but it seldom got used, it was 
here vhf-contests at blacksheep.org

I tried a test mail and haven't had a reply yet, so it may have ceased?

I assume that's why there are now both camps on here, no other outlet.

The RSGB CC combining HF/VHF has influenced the way people use this 
reflector.

There are distinct differences, but also commonalities, for contesters at HF 
& VHF. One reflector serves both, but two would polarise things even more. 
If the title of the mail were prefixed with HF or VHF, you could filter the 
ones you don't want out locally.
