In an earlier incarnation of the "SO2R should be a separate clas from 'real' single op" discussion, I voted "no." I felt that if you had the hardware and the skill to jump to the second radio to grab

Well, Mal, I disagree. I think your record says that you are more than "very slightly above average" of all those operators in, say, SS who give as much time as they can spare and work as hard as the
