That works only if you are also willing to include ANTENNAS as a
"significant advantage." As I have said over and over, if you
want a "fair" category, make it one transceiver and single element
antennas (verticals or dipoles/inverted Vs no higher than 35 feet).
As soon as you allow gain antennas but exclude SOxR, you begin to
discriminate based on "good" tools or "bad" tools - where "good"
and "bad" are defined based on "what I have" and "what you have."
