2025 Summer VHF Contests by ARRL and CQ; +N1CC

I didn't shoot individual videos for ARRL's June VHF contest or the split sessions for CQ's Worldwide VHF contest in Summer 2025. Instead, I'm compiling my experiences into a single report, perhaps along with some lessons learned. I also combined my efforts to pursue a POTA milestone known as the N1CC award. This video does NOT contain any QSO activity other than a few clicks of a computer mouse for FT8.
