Get Your FM Rigs Warmed Up!

The American Radio Relay League's January VHF ham radio contest is close at hand. (As of this posting...Jan. 17-18th, 2026) They hold 3 VHF contest each year: January, June & September. Technician class amateur radio licensees can have a blast with this contest because they have privileges on almost all of the bands being used for this contest: 6 meters, 2 meters, 220MHz, UHF-440MHz and on up to 1296MHz. You can participate with just an HT if you are in an urban area or if you live in a densely populated area or an active area for FM simplex work; or a mobile setup in your vehicle or your home shack. There's also plenty of single side band activity on 6 & 2 meters as well. This is always a great time to introduce Technicians to contesting because they have transmit privileges from 6 meters to VHF, 220 MHz, UHF and on up to 1296 which are the bands for this particular contest. So if you are a Technician, get that HT out, or get in your vehicle on your dual band mobile rig and go outside and call CQ Contest during one of the contest weekends!
