Thanks to AD1C for noticing he too is making spots he didn't.

Anybody else?

I like to use two computers in SO2R because I am not that good at it...

The second station has its own keyboard and I can hunt and peck bits and
pieces of the callsign into it - maybe all or part of the exchange...and
once the timiong is right for a pause on the run rig and availability on the
secon d rig I hit F4...

If you only have one keyboard you can easily be overwhelmed...of course it
is more efficient and I am certain the winners have perfected their skills
along these lines...

Me I just am bored listening to myself call CQ so I do something else while
that is going on and at the same time fatten up the score....when it gets
too maddening I just run em....taking a pause from info overload...

Don't forget it is 12 days until the Florida QSO Party!
