[CQ-Contest] The meaning of words

[Ken Widelitz]

"I am in SS running unassisted.  I need VT.  I am CQ'ing away on 80M, "CQ
SS, looking for VT".  Some random person comes on freq and tells me
unprovoked that there is a VT station calling CQ up 10 from me.  Do I ignore
his "assistance", use it and remain in the unassisted category, or change
categories to assisted?"

That does NOT make you assisted. See K3EST's annotations to the CQWW rules
in the recent CQ-CONTEST magazine. As Bob puts it, it is "unplanned" help.
