[CQ-Contest] The meaning of words

[Martín Monsalvo LW9EUJ]

Doug:
I agree with you.
Tell me how to control it.
How can you assure an entrant who spents several thousand dollars to be
competitive during, say, CQ WW, that his/her competitors won't take unfair
advantage.
I my original message I mentioned "on the air assistance by friends" too.
The line to define single op should be those regarding the operating itself,
to me (logging, station control, decisions), limiting the category
definition by the amount of technology that can be used, is against reality.
Even more when you can not control who was or who was not using one or other
methods.

PS: TO Dale, KG5U: Internet is available in the middle of Sahara.... I guess
we have to think in terms of future.

*No, that is not adequate.  Any use of a spotting nets puts you in the
*assisted category...it does NOT have to be limited to packet.  Two meter
*voice repeaters (or any band) count as assisted also.  So does "my
*buddy down
*the street called me on 15m while I was calling CQ on 15m and told
*me about a
*good mult up 10kc."  There are MANY scenarios that will fit the
*definition of
*spotting net/assistance that are not packet.
