You are right that we plan to only have 2 signals (one per band on 2
different bands) but the rules say that each radio is allowed 8 band
changes per clock hour. For example, one radio is on 20 and the other
on 15 and they are running. Our third op is sitting at the third radio
listening to V26B on 10 meters. When the 20 meter op has a break in his
run our op on 10 meters will work V26B and then logs him, the 20 meter
op will then restart his run. That counts as two band changes for that
(20 meter radio). Now let's discuss what the log will look like. The
log will show a contact made on 20 meters then a contact on 10 meters
and then another contact on 20 meters. That would be fine but at the
same time the 15 meter op is continuing his run and interspersed between
the 20 meter and 10 meter contacts there may be some Qs on 15. How can
the log checkers determine if I did a band change from the 20 meter
radio or the 15 meter radio. Therein lies the question. Clear as mud.

I'm lost - Why isn't this M3? I guess because no more than 2 transmit
at a
time, right? I don't think log checking would be a problem. 3 Qs on 3
different freq would be a problem, but otherwise, I don't think the log
will
be a problem - They don't care how many computers you have.
