== My first ever serious SO2R ==

Well, after years in contesting, I finally came to this camp!

Previously I made a cheap, manual headphone A/B switch box myself, but that was
just a toy, not exactly an SO2R, compared to the sophistication provided by
devices like u2R.

For me, this was completely new contesting experience. Yes, u2R is truly a
little gem! It worked flawlessly and I really liked the rhythm and speed. It
reminds me of playing a musical instrument (like a drum set or a piano) on a
rhythm.

The score was largely affected by the storm, my ineptness, not being a
full-time effort and irresistible sleepiness due to lack of it (had lot of
naps), but nonetheless I enjoyed the WPX and SO2R so much. There would be no
return to monotone SO1R boredom. No choice!

I'm very happy to be at the starting point of this learning experience.
