[VHFcontesting] VUAC proposal to ARRL

[Dan Evans]

I like the proposal other than the 30 QSO limit. I can see where two 10 
band rovers could cross at a grid corner and easily hit 40 QSO's and 
then go on their own way.  This would throw them into unlimited.

I could live with the 50%, or even 20 or 30%, but the 30 QSO option is a 
bit too restrictive in my opinion.  But, aside from making all rover Q's 
count for zero, I'll continue roving regardless of the rules.

Not that it would effect me.  I currently only have 3 bands, and very 
rarely work other rovers.  I would love to work 30 rover Q's!!  Someday 
I hope to get another 222 transverter, but the auto market is going to 
have to do some recovering before I can make any improvements to the 
rover station...
