>This is a reminder that the CQ Worldwide VHF Contest is coming up July 19
>-20 [1800Z Saturday to 2100Z Sunday]. This is a 6- and 2-meter contest
>only...so multi-band VHF/UHF capability is not needed to compete. You
>will find the rules in the June issue of CQ Magazine and on the CQ
>website: www.cq-amateur-radio.com.
>
>The categories are single-op all-band, single-op single-band, single-op
>QRP [all-band], multi-op, and rover. This year on a trial basis, we have
>introduced the "Hilltopper QRP" category: QRP [<10 watts] portable
>6-hours continuous only from a great location...such as backpacking or
>driving to rare grid locations where you don't have to contend with
>staying overnight and packing heavy hardware. See p. 14, June CQ.
>
>We've done significant overseas promotion so we are expecting more DX
>participation.
>
>Those of you who have HF+ radios should find this an enjoyable contest,
>perhaps your first on VHF. We're looking for "Rookie" entries and
>"Elmers" to assist and encourage "newbies" to enter the fun world of VHF
>contesting.
>
>All scores are reported in the results in CQ Magazine and certificates to
>top scoring stations.
>
>The contest is now Cabrillo supported with electronic submission to
>cqvhf@cqww.com. See the CQ website for paper log submission. Any
>questions go to vhf-querstions@cqww.com.
>
>See you all in the CQ WW VHF Contest...and have fun! 73,
>
