Hi John,
If you are signing /R and and stations log you without the /R, it will be a
busted call. The reason is due to the fact that Rovers can also submit an
entry as a fixed station (not signing /R) as well as a Rover in the
contest. Thus, the calls are treated as 2 separate call signs in the
contest.
