VHF Contest Participation

Thanks Mike !

Also, be aware of and use PINGJOCKEY CENTRAL when attempting to operate random meteor scatter.

And KST chat for general awareness of 6M openings nationwide .  Also VHF/UHF activity, but mostly east of the Mississippi.

GM Mike.  How about a 2M schedule right at the start -1900Z
CW on 144.200 unless you're up on the WSJT modes then we can try something easier.

Two NMVHF rovers finished 2nd (W3DHJ) and 4th (KK6MC) overall.  They even beat K2EZ's 15-grid effort on the east coast where so much contest activity occurs.  It took a zero-sleep, 10-grid marathon by AC0RA/KG5CCI to break the CQ-VHF rover record and claim the top spot.
