There are no technology differences between the single op unassisted and single
op assisted categories with one exception: the delivery of callsigns and
frequencies from an outside source as used in the assisted category. Whether
that happens via packet radio/net connection or via a piece of computer
software connected to a receiver is irrelevant.
