So it is.

As per "General Rules for ARRL Contests below 30MHz", 2.2.1 states that "Use
of spotting assistance or nets .... not physically located at the station is
permitted."

CQ usually states that spotting in the "Assisted" category is done by the
singular operator as well.

I stand corrected for my last posting :)
