- Just remember that it was only a year or so ago that the VHF/UHF contest committee recommended removing the higher bands from the June VHF contest. I think removing 6m from the June contest would kil

- No, I don't like that idea. Six is too much fun when it opens! If no one ever gets to the higher bands in June, then they probably will in the September contest. Having a six-meter contest could be v

- 6 is not always dominant... How quickly people forget. Last year 6 Meters stank - one of the worst June contests for Es. We were blessed with good 6M conditions this year. The ARRL has the UHF contes

- CQWW VHF was a total blast two years ago because 50 MHz was so open. Don't count this contest out. It's a lot easier on Hilltoppers and Rovers too - only two bands to concentrate on! 73, Zack W9SZ __

- Are you on drugs? 50 MHz is the perfect band to get the newbie with their tech ticket on the air with an inexpensive basic station and get involved. Obviously this is some New England elitist attitud

- Besides, we already have that contest (no 6M), it is called the ARRL UHF Contest (August). Generally boring as all heck (per my interests...your mileage may vary :-) 73, Bob K0NR ____________________
