[VHFcontesting] VHF Rules..

[Rhinosix]

Well that' s why I only submit check log logs for these contests.  I'm just in it for the Grids.
Let just get on and make some noise and get some activity going.  It works for the 205 group on 2 meters.
And when things are slow with MS, EME and the skip is not open. Try the slow data  modes JT65/9 or CW.
For those of us who aren't on Mtn tops or pent houses and using Long boom beams Use a moxon or loop
and work some of us locals in the valleys.
