Are you on drugs? 50 MHz is the perfect band to get the newbie with
their tech ticket on the air with an inexpensive basic station and get
involved.  Obviously this is some New England elitist attitude or
better yet, conspiracy to prevent the rest of "fly over country" or
"newbies" from getting any Q's for the score board.  If you are going
to eliminate 50 MHz just eliminate the darn contest altogether.
