[VHFcontesting] Grid Circling Group & VUAC

[Jim Worsham]

Thanks Dave.  I appreciate that comment after the literally hundreds of
hours and thousands of emails that the VUAC went through in an attempt to
improve the rover rules.  It is good to know that all of the personal time I
put into the effort with no compensation other than feeling that I am making
a contribution to the VHF contesting community is appreciated.  Tell you
what, when your division's representative time is up I will make sure that
your name is on the top of the list of folks who would like to serve on the
VUAC.

Why don't you guys just stop bashing rovers? They don't compete with fixed
stations. The so called "Grid Circling Group" is out there having fun. They
have a considerable investment in their gear just like a lot of fixed
stations do. However, many folks don't have the location, money or time to
set up a competitive fixed station. Roving is an option. But, everytime a
rover suggests something on here, it gets bashed. It gets old fast and
probably discourages many from even bothering with VHF+ contesting.

As far as the VUAC goes, I seem that group as being rather worthless.
