[CQ-Contest] Assisted or multi op.?

[Joe]

I'd like to see a like Field Day B class  two person.  for us old timers 
that are getting too old to stay up and run a full contest anymore.  Yet 
don't have enough local interest to be a true multi op station,  Just 
you and your buddy  type of operation would be a blast!
