I agree that this is very likely.

As is the chance that someone will look at the cluster
for you and tell you where the section you need is on the bands.

This is why you will never hear me call a CQ like that in the 
SS or any other contest.  I do not want the help. 

Already in contests you have folks telling you about 
these mults - I hate it when they do that because I dont
want to be helped.
