[CQ-Contest] 2RSO Operating Position Layout

[Barry Kutner]

What you presbyopic (aka old, hi) folks might want to do is get  
"computer glasses." The top part is mid-range (18-24 inches), like 
a trifocal or middle of the progressive lens, and the bottom is the 
full near power (12-18 inches). The disadvantage is if you look up 
over the monitor at a distance, it will be a blur. But if you are 
seriously contesting and planted in the chair for hours, it will 
probably work out better in the long run.

There are all sorts of interesting occupational lenses, like the 
plumber's bifocal which is on the top for working overhead...
