https://www.k0nr.com/wordpress/2025/06/cq-ww-vhf-146-52/cq-ww-vhf-contest-2/ I've been whining about the fact that for many years the 2m FM calling frequency, 146.52 MHz, was prohibited for use in VHF contests and Field Day. See The One Frequency You Should Never Use on Field Day ( https://www.k0nr.com/wordpress/2014/06/the-one-frequency-you-should-never-use-on-field-day/
) . Well, the ARRL removed this restriction ( https://www.arrl.org/news/use-of-146-52-mhz-fm-simplex-frequency-cleared-for-arrl-contests
) in 2015, so that issue has been resolved.
