Yes you do.  So what?

Arguing that SO2R is an advantage should not be the 
issue.  Of course it is an advantage - like many 
other advantages that we have incorporated into our 
stations over the years.  The list is huge.

To me, that's one of the aspects of radio 
contesting that keeps it interesting.

The problem is NOT the "gaining of an advantage" but 
what "advantages" (or differences - use your own noun) 
are so overwhelming (or unique - use your own 
adjective) that they warrant creating another class.

With all the technology that we've come to accept as 
in the spirit of the single operator, I just don't see 
any difference in adding a second xcvr.
