------------ REPLY FOLLOWS ------------
If you call "CQ VY1" and a VY1 answers, you are still unassisted. But
if someone else replies and tells you where to find the VY1, you are
assisted - if and only if you act on the information.
It all hinges on the assistance of a third party. If there is no third
party, you remain unassisted.
