I can't resist.

I have not read all the discussion in detail, but there seems to be a
near-consensus that dueling CQs is immoral if done on a single band, mainly
because it uses up too much spectrum.  (Note that this a problem only if the
CQer is loud.)

So, why is dueling CQs not immoral if done on two different bands -- which
seems to be the consensus for advanced SO2R, as has been expounded every
time I complain about the practise.  Hey. one signal at a time is one signal
at a time.

I offer again to build a little box that will send "inverted" CW on your
other freq.  That's only one signal at a time.  The cost for this box: a
reasonable explanation as to why that practise should be allowed.  It is,
after all, only one signal at a time.
