[CQ-Contest] AR vs ZD

[Randy Thompson, K5ZD]

Actually, this was the first DX contest where K1AR used two radios.  He has
previously been a one radio kind of guy.  My only hope is that the extra
mental capacity required will have impaired his accuracy enough to require
massive reductions during the log checking process...

Randy, K5ZD

PS - Guys, YT3T was making a joke!

You have just defined the difference between a radioman and a 
computer operator!  

Because my station is crippled, I turned on the packet this
past weekend (CQWW CW) and worked barefoot "assisted".  Felt
like I was cheating.
