- Well we cannot have all these undocumented rovers in the country without papers. It's clear we need comprehensive rover reform or would that be considered amnesty? Jim, AF6O _________________________

- Perhaps it would help to get an idea what other rovers are doing as far as contacts with other rovers. In June, I made 251 QSOs. Of those, 13 were with other rovers. This was as a Limited Rover. That
