Re: [CQ-Contest] SO2R

["ku8e" <ku8e@bellsouth.net>]

 Lately I have been doing SO2V (Single-Op 2 VFO's). What I do is set one VFO up 
on the band I am CQing on and the other on another band to S&P. When there is a 
pause in the rate I switch to the other VFO and work someone on another band 
real quick and then switch back to my CQ frequency quickly.

The only disadvantage is that I can't transmit and listen on another band at 
the same time... but it's still better then sitting on one frequency like you 
would doing SO1R and not knowing what's happening on the other bands.

The advantage is you don't need special SO2R boxes and bandpass filters. N1MM 
even has a SO2V mode. Try it out and you will notice an increase in your 
contest scores (and multipliers)
