  I left active contesting as a serious participant for those two reasons....

  1.)  Unless I wanted to commit $100,000 to $200,000 I was never going to
  "best" the guy in my section that had spent that much money. He and I were
  in the same class. 
  And
  2.)   a single operator entry should be one person, one radio, and no
  farting around with two or three transmitters on different bands as long as
  one is not transmitting at the same time as one of the others... 

  When I realized that contesting was little more than many people finding
  their own unique way and version of "cheating", I decided to spend my time
  in more productive pursuits. Anyone that thinks that cheating is not common
  (many think that their particular way of slicing the rules to their own
  advantage is not cheating), but there are a thousand ways to cheat, and
  anyone who does not think it is going on in contesting is blind or a fool.

  There is no way a Single Op, with a Single transmitter should be up 
  against SO2R.

  Sure someone can come up with a blackbox to keep only one signal on air 
  at any given time,
  but still you have the distinct adavantages of two separate radios.


  Time to let them be in their own class.
