The Lunar Roving Vehicles (LRV's), commonly known as "Rovers" did not have call signs, or code names. When the capsule communicator at NASA in Houston needed to talk to an astronaut on the moon, he simply referred to him by name.The first Rover was driven by David R. Scott, the Commander of Apollo 15. Apollo 16 and Apollo 17 also carried Rovers. All 3 Rovers had television cameras which recorded not only the astronaut's activities while on the moon, but also the launch of the Lunar Module from the moon. The Rover television was controlled at NASA by Ed Fendell.
