2BSIQ – Two Band Synchronized Interleaved QSOs (I think this name is
more appropriate than dual CQ, because the key to mega rate is the interleaved synchronization.
In this two minutes I work 17 stations (15 US and 2 EU), 9 QSOs in the first
minute and 8 QSOs in the second, for an instant rate of 510 QSOs/hour.
Make sure you hear it with headphones and in a PC in order to fully understand
what station is coming from respective radio, and also read the comments I put
in the video (they do not show in mobile phones) to fully understand it.
