2 monitors = mucho real estate for contesting. Many possibilities - some practical, some just fun or handy. Contest on one monitor and fill the other with 5 bandmaps for a "View of the Contest". Cont

Darn you're up early (or late), Doug (if you're in CA)! Good thought, but NO. I'm aware of that practice, but I've never done it. Hopefully tonight I can cajole someone to actually get on the air and
