Actually, there's little scope for simple multi-op entries. As soon
you have more than one op, you're straight into multi-1 which requires
huge investment to even enjoy it. The russian dx contest has the MOST
(multi op single tx) category which the CQ contests don't. Not sure of
power requirememts but at least it plays better into the smaller fun
teams.
Alex, Russian is week before WPX and is only 24 hours. We might have a
bash at MOST.. See you there!
Cheers,
Callum.
