[UK-CONTEST] CQ WW WPX Contests - Multi ONE Rules

[Callum MØMCX]

Exactly right. One transmitter at any time. The rules changed. You can  
have as many receivers as you like.

As you know, SO2R is a very broad subject but you should be able to  
use your M2 filtering system for your M1 station which should allow  
for running on say 20m whilst spotting (or working) on say 15m, just  
don't transmit on both at the same time.

Ps - what filtering are you using?
