[NLRS] SBMS 2007, 2 GHZ & Up Club Contest Results

[W0ZQ at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land

The San Bernardino Microwave Society has published  the results from last 
years 2 GHz & Up contest.  Congradulations to the  Northern Lights Radio Society 
for their first place finish with 195,166 points  from 12 logs.  Second place 
went to the Front Range Microwave Society with  a score of 72,025 points from 
11 logs.   You can see the brief posting  at 
http://www.ham-radio.com/sbms/2007_2ghz-up_test.pdf  .  

One  of the great things about VHF/UHF/uW contesting is the diversity.    The 
CQ WW VHF contest is well positioned with just 6m and 2m as are the Spring  
and Fall Sprints.   The ARRL's big three currently use all  bands.  The ARRL's 
August UHF contest is 222 and up while their 10 GHz  contest is 10 GHz and Up. 
  This SBMS is well positioned for  contesting on 2304 and up.   With such 
diversity we can all find ways  to have fun at different times on different 
bands.  The SBMS has not posted  the dates for the 2008 contest, so we will be 
watching for that.   

Again, congratulations to the NLRS for a first time first place finish  in 
this fun event.

73, Jon
