RMVHF+ Participation Certificate for 2010 June VHF Contest

Currently in the design stages, we want to announce that RMVHF+ will once again offer Participation Certificates for those taking part in the 2010 ARRL June VHF QSO Party.  We've modified the rules and are offering the following Certificates in three levels of participation based on the number of contacts...

 
Certificate Name
Total Contacts Needed
Contacts on 2 meters
 or bands above 2 meters
Basic Participator
10
5
Journeyman Participator
25
10
Master Participator 50 25

The exchange made during this contest is the call sign and grid square. A signal report is sometimes given but not necessary as it is fairly much superfluous  information. The bands used in this contest are 50 MHz and above. Submission of contact logs should be emailed to or snail mail to:

Rocky Mountain VHF+
P.O. Box 473411
Aurora, CO  80047-3411

 

Please get you contest logs in by the end of June. All certificates will be awarded at the Denver Radio Club's Hamfest at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds on August 22nd.  Just look for the Rocky Mountain Ham Radio Communications (and Contesting!) trailer at the event.

RMVHF+ Certificate for January 2006 VHF Contest

 
 
PARTICIPATION CERTIFICATE OFFERED
 
 The Net Control Operators of the RMVHF+ net are offering a Participation Certificate to RMVHF+ members. This certificate will be available to stations of the RMVHF+ net that submit a log indicating they have made at least 10 contacts (SSB/CW) during the up coming ARRL sponsored June VHF QSO Party. The event will be held this year, June 11/12, 2005, (1800Z June 11 - 0300Z June 13). Anyone checking into the RMVHF+ Net on Monday evenings at 8PM (local time) on 144.220 MHz is considered a member of the group.
 
 
 This certificate is being offer in an effort to obtain greater participation in this annual event. Also, some may feel intimidated by contest operation and this would be a good chance to get ones feet wet. This event is really painless and should afford new hams as well as older members a chance to get on the air during this event and exercise their equipment.
 
 The exchange made during this contest is simply call sign and grid square. A signal report is sometimes given but not necessary as it is fairly much superfluous  information. The bands used in this contest are 50 MHz and above.
 
A certificate of participation will also be issued for the July 16-17 CQ event!
