If there is some standard FM
contest freqs in other parts of the country, lets try them.
Thinking about what Tom, K6EU stated about *issing them off is a valued
thought
If we go about (Humm How to say this delicately?) Getting them
Angry at us (Okay that sounds good!) The word will spread like
wild fire throughout their ranks about us "Contesters" stealing
another valued spot of the Non-contesting types bandwidth
and that could actually work against us trying to get them involved!

Does anyone know of a standard that was publised showing
simplex frequencies for use during operating events?
We could use that to our advantage!
