[VHFcontesting] A quasi-history of roving

[Jim Worsham]

I don't want to get into the middle of this but since the Fall Sprints have 
been mentioned I have one comment/question.  Yes, we use the original rover 
rules in the fall sprint.  One problem though.  We get almost no rover 
submissions.  We get maybe one or two for each band.  So if the original 
rover rules are all that great then why don't the rovers operate in the 
sprints?
