The technology is available to operate S02R, if the op is good enough he can
gain advantages, if not he won't. D4B was a great exponent of SO2R, Vk4TI is
too busy drinking beer from the fridge to worry about a second radio, -- did we
both have fun ? YES
I enjoy SO2R but its not productive unless you are searching for QSO's !
Contest rules allow SO2R therefore learn to use it or decide like me to just
have a very good SO1R setup and have fun..
BTW anyone interested in joining in our YJ0 Expedition for the CQWPXSSB 2008
send and email to me or join the Google group yj0ax2008

It's never going to be "fair", but it's always going to be fun - at least for
me.
If it was made to be fair - "level the playing field" even I might be able to
win something, get a plaque or a certificate for #1 something. Then what would
I have to shoot for?
I don't need MS2R or SO1RSBw/oC (Single Op One Radio without Cluster classes.
