[Elecraft] split pileup and listening

[wb6rse1 at mac.com]

I recall that it was in Bob's first edition of "The Complete DXer," that he noted that serious DXers only used separate transmitters and receivers. It was of course written at a time when transceivers were relatively new and wide splits for chasing DX required remote VFOs. Dual receive was still to come.

A few years ago I had an occasion to reminded him of his erstwhile pronouncement and was greeted with a knowing shrug and smile.
