Got a spare radio and it isn't already listening on 10m???? seems like a
tactical blunder to me to start with. And no single op who sees the m/m
start logging stuff on 10m is going to 'start popping up there' if they have
any intention of winning. If they have that 2nd radio and know how to use
it and 15m is the best band to be running on then they are using that 2nd
radio to find mults on 20m, and occasionally tuning up to 10m to listen to
me cq to see if anyone is answering... so they hear me running w1 thru w4
passing out zone mults, that gives them more info than seeing my qso count
go up on 10m, and in less time.

is listening to the competition, or a m/m beacon cqing, outside
assistance???
