According to ARRL Field Day Rule 4
4. Entry Categories: Field Day entries are classified according to the maximum number of simultaneously transmitted signals". >From the N1MM Manual - Single operator Contesting https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/manual-operating/single-operator-contesting/ "Single Operator 2 Radio (aka SO2R) is an operating technique that when done properly, can add many extra QSOs and multipliers to your log. This is accomplished by increasing your efficiency during slow times, for example, when you are CQing on one radio, but getting few answers. Efficiency is increased by listening on a 2nd radio while you are transmitting on the 1st radio. On the 2nd radio you are scanning the bands for needed QSOs and multipliers. If you find a new station to work on the 2nd radio, you leave it staged on the 2nd Entry Window until you get a free moment to work this station. Even adding a few QSOs an hour will greatly boost your score." In SO2R, you are only transmitting simultaneously on one radio. In the second reference the highlighted passage is the key statement, "Listening on a 2nd radio while you are transmitting on the first. Still only one simultaneously transmitted signal. Hence the correct classification for Nizar is either 1D or 1E Still just one operator Regards, Ron Litt 281-961-4570 866-667-0521 FAX ron.l...@gmail.com
