Contact folks on 6 and 2 first then move them up the bands.  No big secret.
Folks have been doing it for years.

Subject: [VHFcontesting] Contest contacts on 222 and 1296

I've been entering various VHF/UHF contests for a few years now. Due to
small city lot restrictions I am 

limited to using 100W or less.

I have capability on 6M, 2M, 222MHz, 432MHz and 1.2GHz, but I seem to find
few stations on 222 and 1.2.

I suspect that the more powerful contesting stations have some schedule that
they use for looking for contacts on

these bands. Can anybody help with some information?

Thanks,

Ed (W2SN)
