Subject: [VHFcontesting] 902.010 for contests?
Since I have opened this can of worms... :) I should ask this then.
Do we want to be this close to the band edge with the use of trans-
verters?
What about drift and other things? Some that I know use the MFJ 2m
SSB/CW transceiver as the IF for their transverters and they do drift
a LOT even after being warmed up.
I am VERY leary of operating that close to the band edge since I am
still a greenhorn to my HF frequencies and don't have the equipment to
test things out all the time unless you count my rat shack frequency
counter.
