I have put an entry in the R.H. contest a few times over the years but also admit that these days I seldom operate much on VHF or UHF except for the likes of the VK VHF/UHF/Microwave Field days eg the Summer FD in January each year. That means that I can use my log from that event to enter the R.H. contest but do not regularly do so.
Should it be part of the WIA Contest Champion events ??? Probably not. It is not regarded (in my mind anyway) as an important-enough contest, even though it runs all through January, and I suspect that few operators actually exchange the correct info to qualify for valid contest entries during the normal course of daily VHF operating.
My 2 cents.
