    Then Fine, Let him keep the edge, but let him take it up against the 
skills of other SO2R stations.
    And let the SO1R take their skills, fairly, against other SO1R stations.

   If you've got the time, money and skill needed to set up and operate 
a full blown, legal limit SO2R, Thats fine.
   But don't expect to be in competition with someone of a more modest 
station.
   The point of this whole thread and many more before it is simply, 
Make SO2R its own class.
   Do that, and we bring operator skill to an even fight.
