[CQ-Contest] Determining ASSISTED vs NON-ASSISTED -- was: =>RE: Chea

[Bob Naumann]

Joe,

You've lost the focus on what single operator means.

It means that one operator *locates AND identifies* every callsign that he
puts in his log.

No machine does it for him (local or remote makes no difference), nor any
other person.

When you focus on what single op means, it becomes very easy to see what
should be considered as assisted.

73,

Bob W5OV

I never understand why this is always soo hard.

Assisted,
Another person or machine OUTSIDE your station helped you make or find 
contacts.

Machine INSIDE your station is just that station equipment Not assisted.

Person INSIDE your station helps you is also not called Assisted,  but 
it IS called MULTIOP
