[VHFcontesting] Re: Adding another band

[Robin Midgett]

1. I would add either 222 or 1296, depending on activity and rarity of my 
own grid; either can be done for $500-600
2. I would add 222 & 1296, then 2.304 &10 GHz., then back fill with 3.456 
GHz. & 5.7 GHz. Money being no object, do the best possible job the first 
time around.
