Yes An audio controller isn't really needed, you could make a simple manual audio switch. If you restrict one radio to a single band (say 40m for a domestic contest) the setup will be even simpler.

Despite what has been said, Classic is NOT a 24 hour event! To be competitive you have to have the full 48 hours free and be able to choose the best operating periods as the weekend progresses. That

Having the 10m contest later in December would be better in low propagation years because that is closer to the winter solstice when there is a slight peak in sporadic E propagation. Tor N4OGW ______

There is also no reason you have to go 100% one way or the other- a combination of mouse and knob can work really well. For example, I tune in most S&P contacts using the mouse (not in the Sprint ho

Classic is not a 24-hour category. To be competitive you still need the whole 48 hour contest period free to pick from the best times to operate. Tor N4OGW ___________________________________________

This is not generally true and is often used as an excuse. Young people do many things that take just as much or more work as passing a radio exam. Such as playing musical instruments or sports. 99.
