I have been a VHF/UHF Contest operator for many years. I was under the
impression that all VHF/UHF contest rules were changed early in 2016 to permit
“One Grid Roves” so as to account for: mobile operators AND operators who
did not succeed in making QSOs from more than one grid. Old rules had no
capability for these types of entries!
I operated very briefly from grid DM04mc in the Santa Monica Mts. on Saturday
afternoon and about 1.6 hours from grid DM04qb, also in the Santa Monica Mts,
on Sunday morning. I did NOT work any band-grids on Saturday which were not
duplicated on Sunday. Additionally, I did establish 2 way communications with
XE2CQ & WA6EJO on both days, but only counted the first of each QSO-band
contacts.
I consider that my score is 1653, based on a 1 grid rove, but from 2 locations
within the grid.
I suspect that ARRL might instead recognize 2 separate entries for N6ZE: N6ZE/R
in DM04mc (1440 pts) AND N6ZE/R in DM04qb only (35 pts)
For 223.5 MHz (1.25 m) FM: I used a Kenwood TM331-A 5/8 wave whip
On the 6 meter, 2 meter, & 70cm band, I used an FT857 + 2m/70cm whip &
¼ wave whip on 6m
903 MHz (33 cm): I used my ALINCO DJG29 with whip as a hand held radio at all
times.
