What I learned for my 1st exposure to the VHF weekend contest.
- VHF/UHF/Microwavers are serious hams.
– They communicate and take these operations very seriously
– They operate strange expensive radios and antennas from their cars
– They pre-arrange operating times and coordinate with others
– They operate big signals and hunt out the little guys
- The W5RRR satellite antennas are not fun equipment for this type of contest
