Does anyone feel that giving extra points for 2.3G and up has out lived it's
usefulness? You can order a complete high quality transverter system from DEMI
or DB6NT and it's easier to work folks on 10GHz in the 10GHz contest than
trying to catch them on 2m!!! It just seems that adding another band which
automatically gives you more Q's and grids is enough of a bonus. When getting
on the microwaves required an engineering degree and $20K in test equipment, I
would agree but now it just seems a relic.
Thoughts?
