There are actually many well-thought-out reasons for not including 80M in the
FQP. Not quite sure why labeling that "dumb" on a VHF reflector is
appropriate.

A couple of comments:
Unless we have an E skip opening, there is no way that I'm working Ontario, on
VHF. But thank the powers that be, for making the VHF and UHF bands part of the
contest. In contrast, here in Florida, the Florida QSO party, next weekend, is
40M ~10M, only. Can't even work 80M, much less 160 or VHF. Kind of dumb, in my
opinion. But, I don't see it changing.
I find it interesting that Ontario and Michigan have contests, the same
weekend. I would think that this would generate a lot of QRM, in the
Ontario/Michigan area?
