Topband: Operating Multiple Rigs, SDRs etc. in Contests - Consider the advantage

There is more to ethics and class of operation than those who cheat - for
example: 

Stations operating two Rigs on the same band, one Running and the other
working Mults.  Doing this is a distinct advantage over a single transmitter
station that is forced to compete against two ops with two rigs.  Some say
"We only have one transmitter on the air at a give time" - May be but there
is a huge difference when it comes to who finds and works mults and the
final score versus a single radio station 

The same goes for SO2R Operation that has a huge advantage over a single
radio station. 

Two Operator stations operating on a single band should be classified as a
M2 Operation and S02R should be a separate class anytime it is used in a
contest. 

As for those who cheat - well, they have to look in the mirror when they
shave...
