I agree with Howie N4AF - don't rule out using SO2R in the
Sprints. I used it in the NS Ladder competition this summer
and it worked out pretty well for me as a low power, low
antenna contester.
One thing I found that was very interesting, was how some of
the top guys used SO2R - I'll use Howie's call to illustrate.
N4AF gets the 20m frequency and I send NS3T. He sends me
my exchange NS3T N4AF 22 Al NC. As soon as I
started sending N4AF 11 Jay MD NS3T, I suddenly heard
CQ NA N4AF on my second radio on 40 meters.
After giving me a dit-dit, N4AF is getting his contact on 40.
By then, I'm giving up the frequency on 20, and sure enough,
N4AF then gets back in on that same 20 meter frequency
and gets another contact. It's not easy, but SO2R does work
in the Sprints.
