Judging by the commentary recently on various reflectors (and my own experience last weekend), it is time for NAQP to institute an Assisted category, rather than lumping all one-transmitter assisted stations into Multi-2.  The M-2 class's band change rule makes zero sense for one transmitter assisted - I'll be losing credit for some QSOs because it never occurred to me that it would cover a single-transmitter competitor.

ARRL 160 CW and ARRL 10M contests got rid of this anachronism a few years ago - it's time for NAQP to follow suit.  I don't know who decides such things, but trust that Chris will know who needs to take action.
