[Mich VHF UHF Society] [VHF] August 5-6 - ARRL's NEW 222 MHz and Up Distance Contest - Team Competition anyone?

[Roger Rehr W3SZ]

Hi Bart,

It is not my N1MM UDC, I just posted some notes regarding its existence.

The UDC was created by Dana VE3DS with additional code by Nick NA3M.

So the kudos go to Dana and Nick :)

Have a great Contest Bart and everyone else, too!

73,

Roger
