[NLRS] September VHF contest and an experiment

[Charlie Betz]

This is a possible solution for fixed stations and I am willing to try it.

Now how do we get all the rovers to look this way?  It obviously will not be 
possible to work them in all of the grids they travel through during two 1 
hour time slots.
