May I try to break the techtalk-pileup with an operating question? I´m 
looking for experience and tips about using SO2R for S&P on two bands 
simultaneously (using i.e. qrp or little antennas) - other than the 
standard pattern with CQing on one radio and hunting on the second 
radio. After starting it in two contests it felt challenging and 
interesting, mainly to use the "waiting time" on frequency one to tune 
on another band. Is there something more important to learn than to 
train the  brain decoding two audio streams simultaneously? Thanks in 
advance for any input on this subject which may motivate us small guns 
more than the incredible and disappointing quote "SO1R is the lazy 
person's contesting".
Best 73, Chris
