How do you reconcile 100 plus QSOs? You don't have to. At the 101st QSO
the Rover becomes an Unlimited Rover. The rule reads "A rover may not make
more than 100 QSOs with any other one rover." Not that a Rover may choose
which he turns in. If the Unlimited Rover turns in a log with 101 QSOs in
it for the Rover, then the Rover should be automatically reclassified to
Unlimited regardless of the class he tried to enter. The ARRL should
specifically be counting rover vs. rover QSOs, otherwise they have no clue
as to who is following the rules.
More interestingly, if a third party independantly sent to the ARRL proof
of 101 QSOs between the Rover and the Unlimited Rover, and both their
submitted logs showed only 100 QSOs, then both should be subject to
disqualification and other appropriate penalties for sending in untrue logs.
