The rules say...

2.1.Single Operator: One person performs all transmitting, receiving, and logging functions as well as equipment and antenna adjustments.

2.1.1.Use of spotting assistance or nets (operating arrangements involving other individuals, DX-alerting nets, packet, Internet, etc) is not permitted.

The practice noted above seems to fit the prohibition of using "operating arrangements involving other individuals" specifically because it requires more than "one person" to "perform...receiving...functions."

Food for thought from one of the most unofficial voices on the list. :)

PS: now...if someone could officially define the term "spotting" in the first place.... <grin>
