Yes Dana, that would be a dupe. Last year I worked a station from FN02wv on 6 
bands. I picked a spot I knew we would be able to work 5 & 10G. Then I moved 
farther away to FN02vu and we made contacts again on 222-1296. I kept all of 
the contacts in my log. In the log checking report, the ARRL system 
automatically kept the longest distance contacts and called the shorter ones 
duplicate.

Hi
Can someone give me an interpretation of the rule for Rovers…


3.2. Rover Stations: A Rover is a station that moves beyond the limits of a 
fixed location during the course of a contest. Aeronautical mobile stations are 
not allowed. Rover stations may be worked from each four-character grid square 
in which they operate. If more than one contact on a given band is made between 
stations in specific grid squares, then the contact with the longest path 
distance will be counted.

This suggests that a ROVER can only be worked from one GRID regardless of how 
many sub grids they operate from in the at GRID…

ie if I work VE3XYZ/R in FN03AA  on 33 cm and then he moves to FN03BB and I 
work him again on 33 cm, that contact is a DUPE?   Right?


Thx
Dana VE3DS
