[CQ-Contest] Question for Experienced SO2R Ops

My own practice has been to route the 160/40/15M antennas to one rig,
and the 80/20/10M antennas to the other.  The "Run"/"S&P" status of
each rig changes according to the choice that I make.  For extended
periods that often exceed 50% of the contest period on this coast,
there
could be no "Run" radio at all.
