[WIARC] VHF activity

[n9jfcountyhunter at gmail.com]

I guess one possibility is to bring back the "WIMSPRINT".

For those of you who have forgotten, the WIMSPRINT was the "Western Illinois
Monthly Sprint".  Club members were encouraged to pick a 4-hour period
during the first week of the month and GET ON THE AIR.  Keep track of the
number of contacts, one point per contact regardless of mode, and multiply
the points by the states, provinces and countries logged.  Send your score
to n9jf at arrl.net by the 20th of the month for publication of bragging rights
for the month. Also send details of your most interesting QSO.

What say???

73, Jim N9JF

Count me in for this. This would give me of a push to get more ready for
these bands. Love the VHF/UHF bands. Just need to get on there more. Been on
6m quite a bit lately.
