I think "heard by the operator" is clear enough. SO2R guys must record from
headphones and record what they hear.
I had considered recording line out from both radios (4 channels) but that does
not satisfy the rule.
I plan to use a headphone distribution amp to provide two outputs and set the
levels indeprndently for headphones. I'll prpbably use a dedicated laptop with
sound card to record.
