Not for joining elements.!
For those interested in VHF join it and those HF join that, or Both. If I
ever  get back on  2m in the future I  might join the VHF but you'd still
get a 59 /599 report. 73 Clive GM3POI

Although a VHF (UHF actually) contester I'd be opposed to a separate forum.
I'm interested in HF practice, if only to spot ideas that might be useful
on VHF/UHF.

Incidentally Clive, I think M8 or M10 would be more appropriate for HF
beams, or are you building a contest winning VHF station?
