This is a v-e-r-y cool idea.  I've always thought that we should have another
band between these, anyway.  The June VHF QSO party gathers HFers because of the
HF-like 6m conditions a vice versa for the 10m contest as the sunspots decline.

This is not unlike the multi-banding of the ARRL's uWave Cumulatives, except
that Kenneth may find a multiop to participate with in South Texas.
