[Rover] Rover Survey, Please

[Ev Tupis (W2EV)]

Please...I need to know something.  Please respond ONLY if YOU are a ROVER.

Do NOT respond with future-looking strategies or OPINIONS.  I am looking for
REAL DATA.

PLEASE...respond direct (NOT to the listserve).

I will compile the answers and report the results back to the list...after which
folks can opine to their hearts content. :o)

ROVERS:

1. On AVERAGE, how long (in time) do you stay in a grid to operate?
     - Do NOT say, "until everyone is worked".  If you thought to
       say that, then please consider, on AVERAGE, how long does
       it take to get to that point?  I am looking for minutes,
       hours, etc.

2. What drives your decision to exit a grid?

3. What is your operation-location strategy?
     - Start at the DX grids and work your way toward the population
       centers
     - Start at the population centers and work your way toward DX grids
     - etc.
