Before I submit as a proposal, I'd like to hear other peoples input on the issue.
Background: Gravity Capacitor Upgrade I - 200 Calibration Cost. Gravity Capacitor Upgrade II - 300 Calibration Cost. Cov Ops Frigates - 400 Total Calibration, 2 rig slots.
So as you can see, a Cov Ops frigate can fit 2x Tech I Gravity Capacitor Upgrades, which are as cheap as you like, and is typical and standard fit for the overwhelming majority of explorers. If you have a little bit of money to spend, and want to pimp your frigate with some Tech II goodness, you are only able to fit 1x Tech II GCU, leaving 100 Calibration for whatever second rig you desire, as long as it doesn't compliment your primary role (scanning).
As an example another Tech II frigate, Interceptors, also have 400 total calibration, I typically fit 2 Polycarb rigs on mine (which compliment it's role nicely), the Calibration Cost for Tech I / II is 100 and 150 respectively, half of the GCUs costs.
Am I way off the mark here, requesting that this module be modified so that the ships that benefit from using them (with their primary role), can actually fit them?
If anyone out there actually uses a Tech II GCU, I'd like to hear what you have as your second rig (I'm assuming something like a Tech I Polycarb? - I'd like to know)
Cheers,
Nix

Honestly.
I haven't met a single person who has used T2 rigs on the ships they actually fly in-game.
I'm betting some rich L4 mission runners stick them on their Vargs' and Golems', but other than that...

Hi, meet me. I fit tech 2 rigs on various ships. Not all are as insanely expensive as you may think. Some tech 2 resists rigs are actually decently priced for eg.

It's almost a sin not to use some cheaper T2 rigs on your pvp ships(for example medium energy locusts on zealots).
To the OP: I totally agree that Gravity Capacitor Upgrade rigs require to much calibration. We should be able at least to fit 1 T2 and 1 T1 GCU rigs on our CovOps.

I totally agree with the OP. Since the introduction of the rig sizes I considered that the cov-op ships are totally in need for a calibration boost or the grav cap upg rigs need to be lowered. The t2 small rigs are affordable and worth using them if you feel comfortable.

I support this post. I say drop the cost on GCU I's as well to allow 3 GCU I's on a T1 scan frigate, and also keep the requirements in line with other T1/T2 rigs.
