It occurred to me during CQWW CW this weekend that the contest  could be very 
exciting if two operators shared one station with two  callsigns.  I'm 
talking about taking one or two hour shifts during the  prime hours, and 
perhaps a 
longer shift during the wee hours of the morning and  the high-absorption 
mid-day hours, with alternating callsigns and comparing  scores at the end of 
the 
contest.
 
Seems like it might break up the 48 hours a bit and maybe even allow some  
rest for our aging contest population.  Although it might be a crap  shoot as 
far as good vs. bad hours and conditions, it might also address that  "level 
playing field" issue.
 
Thoughts?
