[VHFcontesting] Contest Tweaks?

[Bill Olson]

I agree with Ev that any changes in qso points would meet with a LOT of 
resistance.. But, speaking of the "physics" of the communication circuit, 
here's what we notice at K1WHS when we work some of the well equipped all 
band rover stations: Signals are often STRONGER on the higher frequencies 
and almost always worse on 6M.. That's not to say it's not HARDER to make 
the Q on the microwaves sometimes due to factors like sharp antennas, 
frequency error, etc.. but microwave stations invariably have more antenna 
gain than VHF (like who's using a 4 element beam on 5760?) which often MORE 
THAN makes up for the increased path loss..

Anyway, as usual, I say leave it alone..
