[VHFcontesting] 2005 CQ WW VHF Contest

[Jeffrey Embry]

Look for K3OQ from FM19je in the Single-op, QRP Category (CW-only).  I
will be using an FT-726R to a Par Moxon on 6 and a 4 element 2 meter
Arrow antenna at about 15 feet or so from my front yard.  It ain't
much, but should do a little better than my attic antennas (Par
omni-angles).

Hope to hear a lot of activity.

73,

number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

This is a 6- and 2-meter only contest with world-wide participation.  I'm getting indications of continued increased activity planned by DX stations.  This is a chance for even more modest VHF stations, both DX and stateside, to realistically compete for certificates.  The complete rules are in the June issue of CQ Magazine and on the CQ website www.cq-amateur-radio.com.
