> I have been asked to clarify the relationship between these two rules:
>
> >From the General Rules for all ARRL Contests:
> 3.5. A transmitter used to contact one or more stations may not
> be subsequently used under any other call during the contest period,
> except for family stations where more than one call has been issued, and
> then only if the second call sign is used by a different operator. (The
> intent of this rule is to accommodate family members who must share a
> rig, and to prohibit manufactured or artificial contacts.)
>
> >From the Rules for All ARRL Contests on Bands above 50 MHz:
> 2.3. Rover: One or two operators of a single station that moves
> among two or more grid squares during the course of a contest.
> 2.3.1. A rover vehicle may transport only one station using a
> single call sign.
>
>
> In the ARRL rules hierarchy, the basic rules are the General Rules for
> All Contests. These may be "superseded" by the next level, which are the
> Rules for All ARRL Contests on Bands Above 50 MHz. The top tier of
> rules is those for any specific contest, which supersede any lower
> rules.
>
> In this instance, the "family-transmitter" rule is superseded by rule
> 2.3.1. of the Rules Above 50 MHz that states a rover vehicle may
> transport only one station using a single callsign.
