[VHFcontesting] Question to the group

[Keith Morehouse]

If anybody cares about my opinion, I think they should stop increasing
point/Q above 900 or 1296...maybe even lower.

You can order a complete high quality transverter system from DEMI or DB6NT and it's easier to work folks on 10GHz in the 10GHz contest than trying to catch them on 2m!!! It just seems that adding another band which automatically gives you more Q's and grids is enough of a bonus. When getting on the microwaves required an engineering degree and $20K in test equipment, I would agree but now it just seems a relic.
