[NA-User] SO2R & Networked Computers?

[Jim White]

I always run two computers in SO2R...allows me to feed in bits and 
pieces of the second radio QSO info - in a contest like SS sometimes you 
have to wait 'til the rhythm is right with your run radio to jump in - 
during that time you can have the other guy's info being filled in 
except for the actual qso number ... and you can park the cursor right 
there - and when he sends that you are "done" and re-commence cqing on 
the run radio...before he is done sending!

Having the second machine as a backup is also a stress reliever ... 
have been doing contests this way for years now - SO2R2C
