      Just ban SO2R from SS..... That way your contacts will
be more spread out over the 24 hour period.  I think the top guys
probably get bored after the first 12 hours or so because they have
worked everyone earlier and quicker than if they have been using one
radio. Seems like if you do SO2R it takes all the strategy , like
picking the right band to be on or when to take your off times out of
contesting. All you have to do is be a CQ machine and tune on the
second
radio and work guys. Not much strategy to doing that....

Why not just have one contest a year when everyone is on equal ground
using one radio, one antenna, and one band at a time.

 Don't get me wrong... I am not bashing SO2R, I do it all the time,
only because you have to do it to be competitive.....
