Hi all,

I got a feeling, it has been touched in the list but I missed it...
Is there really a typo in the rules concerning SO group or something new?

III. Single Operator Cathegories. ...
A. Single band cathegories. Single band or all band; only one signal allowed 
at any one time; the operator may change bands at any time.
1. Single Operator High: Those stations at which one person performs all of 
the operating, logging, and spotting functions. The use of DX alerting 
assistance of any kind places the station in the Single Operator Assisted 
category.

<snip>

B. Single Operator with DX Spotting Net: Same as III A 1 except the passive 
(self- spotting not allowed) use of DX spotting nets is allowed.

To make a long story short. Is the "Assisted" cathegory now called, "Single 
Operator with DX Spotting Net" but not "Assisted" anymore, while the 
reference to "Assisted" in the ch.1 is just a typo, i.e. people simply did 
not update it to the new cathegory name?

The word "Assisted" can be found in the text only once...

The answer looks obvious, just wannabe purist...

73,
