[VHFcontesting] ARRL Proposal for a combined 10 Meter & 6 MeterContest

[Michael Clarson]

Tom: I'm not discouraging use of CW, but emphasizing working the station
any way possible. SSB, CW, "JT" modes etc. Often, in VHF contests, if I am
having trouble on SSB, I will just switch to CW on the same frequency to
complete the QSO. Allowing CW or mixed mode QSOs in the phone bands
requires the provision that a station be worked once per band, regardless
of mode. --Mike, WV2ZOW
