[VHFcontesting] DN56

[Marshall-K5QE]

Hello to the group.....NEVER MIND DN56!....Just put MT on the air on 222 
and 432.  There are LOTS of folks that need that state on those bands.  
MT on 6M and 2M is easy.....but on any higher bands, it is almost 
impossible.

The FFMA Rare Grids Survey and Map   - maintained by Bill Ockert, ND0B and Jim Skjervem, KS7S http://www.arrl.org/ffma  last updated March, 2017,  shows DN56 needed by 25% of the "FFMA leaders" surveyed. You would draw plenty of callers in the June VHF contest and the CQ VHF. The "rarest" FFMA grid was DM02 followed by CN77.
