[NLRS] CSVHFS States Above and Reverse VUCC

[Arliss]

Just a reminder that the Central States VHF Society has a States 
Above 50 MHz Award that runs each year from July 1 to June 30 of 
the following year.  The purpose of the award is to promote 
interest in VHF/UHF operating.

You can read more about the program here:

Participation in the program (including my own) seems to have 
dropped off some over the years.  I was a former participant who 
hadn't submitted an entry in recent years, but I've made a 
resolution to do better this year.  Therefore, prior to the 
Perseids shower I went to the website and printed off a log form. 
  I used that to keep track of the 21 states/provinces that I 
worked on 2m during the shower. I think it's more interesting and 
more of a motivator of activity if I keep a running total going, 
rather than going through old logs months later.


Also, the CSVHFS sponsors the Reverse VUCC program, with further 
information here: http://www.csvhfs.org/vuccdesc.html 
Actually, some of the information there is somewhat out of date, 
in that I am the current administrator for the program.  I'm 
mentioning this because of the upcoming 10 GHz contest; chances 
are that some of you who are rovers may qualify for an award 
based on current and prior activity during that contest.
