I agree Dave, but I think C4N is single op by 5B8AD, using SO2R with duelling enabled. I have also been listening for a while. It sounds very slick.
He probably has some of those very narrow QRO transmit filters that the YT guys use. He keeps about 50KHz apart.
Good use of SO2R but like you I wonder about continuously using two channels on the same band.
