Dick,
I agree with Mark and others on this.
I believe the intent of the rule was that the single operator would tune
his radio to find stations to work. The source that would provide a
list of stations to work, other than the operator tuning his radio to
find stations, is immaterial.
The result is the same and it does not fall into the intent of a single
operator unassisted entry if a list of stations appears on a bandmap for
him to work.
If there had been exceptions that would be OK for a single operator to
have a list of stations provided they would have been specifically
listed. The etc was, in my opinion, added to encompass all other types
of spotting that could not be envisioned at the time the rule was
written.
