Really!

A0 is in voice contact with B0? They're 200 hexes apart!

C0 is in voice contact with B0? They're 12 hexes apart!

S0 is in voice contact w/C0 from 20 hexes away?



I'm going out on a limb and speculate that white R at 200 hex separation means they got all bars. Yellow R means you got some bars and the call could get dropped. If I have yellow R and I move to w/in 4 hex of my superior, I'm gonna get a white R. While my phone may still have a bad connection: I gots contact because I'm w/in verbal range. Right? OR, by moving either B1 or B0, B1 may get a white R. But if B0 moves such that B1's connection is improved, it could adversely affect C0's comm link to B0 wherby C0 gets no bars to B0 (outright red R). Right?

Suppose B1 drops their call during a rally attempt, does that count against B0? Does that mean that even C0 - with white R - can't be rallied by B0 because B1's rally failed (on account of B1's dropped call)?
