My only objections to SO2R contest operation are poor operating practices by
some SO2R operators.  They are easy for S&P contesters to spot.  They call
CQ over and over again with powerful signals and seem to never pause to
listen (look) for people responding.  It's as rude as Call Waiting on the
land line.  Like standby while I work someone who is more important on the
other radio.  When you work a skilled SO2R operation, you cannot tell he or
she is running SO2R.  This is the way it should appear to others.

Again, I do not object to SO2R.  If you run SO2R, try to make it seamless.

Off the soapbox
