Does the ARRL question the "Rovers" that take part in the ARRL VHF contests ? I am unaware of any of those operations from rare grids being challenged or disallowed. Someone please correct me if I am in error on that opinion.
This is a moot point. In the VHF contests rovers are only allowed to operate from one grid at a time. So if a rover is straddling grids, he must chose one or the other to send as an exchange and move a reasonable distance, I think 100 Meters, before the rover can operate in another grid.
Rover operation in contests is more restrictive than other times, not less. I rove and I know. - Duffey -- KK6MC James Duffey Cedar Crest NM
