Alex - Well this still appears to be a better deal than rovers get in  
the UHF contest:

from < http://www.arrl.org/contests/rules/2008/uhf.html >

7. Awards: Certificates will be awarded in the following categories:
        • 7.1  Top single-operator High and Low power score in each ARRL  
Division.
        • 7.2  Top single operator High and Low power score on each band  
(222, 432, 902, 1296 and 2304-and-up categories) in each ARRL Division  
where significant effort or competition is evidenced. (Note: Since the  
highest score per band will be the award winner for that band, an  
entrant may win a certificate with additional single-band achievement  
stickers.) For example, if W1AW has the highest single-operator multi- 
band score in the Atlantic Division and his 432-MHz score is higher  
than any other Atlantic Division single-operator’s, he will earn both  
a certificate for being the single-operator Division leader and an  
endorsement sticker for 432 MHz.
        • 7.3  Top multi-operator score in each ARRL Division where  
significant effort or competition is evidenced. (Multioperator entries  
are not eligible for single-band awards.)
Additional certificates may be awarded where significant effort or  
competition is evidenced.

where, despite the rover categories, there appear to be no rover  
specific awards at any level called out in the rules, section or  
division. I hope that these awards are made and the enumeration of  
them in the rules is an omission. Perhaps the the rover maniacs from  
the NLRS can comment? - Duffey
