Hi Everyone,

I think a lot of good points and suggestions have been brought up concerning 
VHF contesting. I am sure we have the expertise in this group to figure out a 
way to promote contesting and enhance activity. Unfortunately, it does not 
appear to me that the ARRL will take our concerns serious based on recent 
developments.  

I suggest that a volunteer committee be formed to study the situation over 
the next several months and offer a proposal to the VHF community. Assuming 
the league does not listen, there is absolutely nothing wrong with moving 
forward as a separate group or organization. Since we have little or no 
magazine coverage to promote contesting, I think it is a good time to unite 
and take control of our contest future. 

People contest for various reasons, but all of them has one thing in common 
and that is to achieve a goal.  Each of us need to set our own goals and not 
be afraid to fail. If two people or more have the same goal, then it is 
called competition.
