[VHFcontesting] Encouraging CW contacts in VHF contests.

[Marten T Beels]

I think that is a good idea.  One of my main focuses this past June was to try
and get more CW contacts.  For my skill level (slow), it meant much fewer
contacts overall, but I had more fun doing it!  The best was coordinating band
changes with K8MM all in CW several grid squares away.

What about Field Day type scoring where a CW contact is 2 points?  Just a
thought...
