The other one is SCC RTTY Championship, sponsored by Slovenia Contest Club,
with its Assisted (or, better to say, Expert or Unlimited) category, which
allows use of two radios,  packet spots and band changes are not limited to
ten per hour as in another SO categories.

Assisted category in SCC RTTY has been introduced (since 2004) due to
complains on limited band changes per hour which makes use of 2 radios
obsolete... OTOH, band changes were limited due noticed (and proven)
cheating (multi op operation in single op categories)...
