[VHFcontesting] VE Rover in USA

[Paul Kiesel]

AF6O is quite right about reading the regulations.

In the US, you have to sign your call as VE3CRU/W3, not W3/VE3CRU. The special agreement between Canada and the United States has it that way. Hams from other countries will sign with the US prefix first. Visitors from the US to Canada will sign K7CW/VE7, not VE7/K7CW as you see once in a while.

Speaking of how to sign while in the other country, why not look into taking the exam in the US and get a US call if you visit often?

If a VE Rover operates in the USA, I see a few ways to identify, but which is correct?

Under HF procedure, VE3CRU/W3/Rover in FN00 and logger deletes /W3?

Under VHF, VE3CRU/Rover in FN00 ... which is more location specific?

Does the FCC allow for the second option?
