Good European Morning,
I was guessing my idea would be miscopied, but I sent the message as it was.
I rephrashe:
I am sure the assisted category will vanish by merging into single op category
as the 'assisted' just does not work as it should. Assisted is kind-of
'fabricated' operating class.
My view of the future top contests is the use of spotting networks is allowed,
but the operator has to do all work her/himself to get the QSOs in the log.
Single ops of the world will unite in one category.
There is a lingual image trying to transfer the message assisted is history,
make only one single op category.
73,
Jukka OH6LI
