[VHFcontesting] Best contesting rig

[John Geiger]

I am preparing to write my monthly Contesting Column
for our local newsletter.  This month I am going to
write about what to look for in picking out the best
contesting rig.  I would like opinions and feed back
from reflector members about the best contesting rig:

1. Under $600
2. From $600 to $1000
3. From $1000 to $1500
4. Over $1500

Are there any rigs in these categories that you would
definitely avoid?  Any Why?

Thanks
