You're not the only one thinking this way, Alan.  I'm all for it too,
but I agree that is should be in a different category.  Perhaps a
subcategory of Assisted.

For those of us in a rural setting where the only "broadband" available
is a satellite connection, I doubt it would work the way it is intended
due to the inherent latency.

Maybe our Prez could make a recommendation along these lines as a club
to the Contest Committee?

I am probably the only one on the globe that thinks this way, but I am
all
for CW Skimmer and SO2R, no problem with the technologies at all.  But I
do
feel that they ought to be in a separate category rather than the normal
single operator category.  They need to at least be in the assisted
category.  Like I said, I am probably the only one on the globe that
thinks
this way, but I think it puts the single operator at a disadvantage and
everyone does not have the capability of running it full time during a
contest.  But that is my two cents worth, which is not worth much!
