[CQ-Contest] "It's just to save on typing"

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

So turn off the computer and use a straight key......  Keyers and 
computers are assistance.  If anyone helped you put up your towers.  Too 
bad you are now always multiop.  Didn't build your own 
rig....asistance.   Didn't repair your own rig, assistance.

Where do you draw the line?  I guess that is up to the individual and 
contest organizers to decided what is and what is not assistance.
