[VHFcontesting] Get a Technician out there. 1st place FM wide open for Sept

[nosigma at aol.com]

KM4KMU will be supporting the W4IY multiop team this September and not crushing the FM category for a 4th straight time (pride cometh before the fall LOL).  Anyhow if you know a new ham that wants to hang Sept 1st place paper on the wall get them out there.  

Pacific Northwest, Rochester, San Diego/ SoCal this is your chance to bring home the bacon  in the hotly contested September  FM category.  Club pride is at stake here.

All it takes is a 3 or 4 band mobile on whips near a north south grid line 10 to 20 miles from a populated grid corner.  Altitude helps but is not essential as Ev, W2EV has proven.  FM is a local event scored nationally so coordinate with clubs, get the word out on local repeaters.  Study your line of sight on google earth.  Make FM simplex rock.
