Charlie, 

Would like to propose a new "UNLIMITED" category for both the 
ARRL 10m Contest and ARRL RTTY Roundup.  Much like that that is 
found in the ARRL Sweepstakes (PH/CW) contest.  

This would allow the "packet cluster spot assisted" and the MULTI_OP 
participants in these contests to have there category properly identified 
and efforts acknowledged.

Currently all the spotting assistance entries for both of these contests 
are grouped into the MULTI-OP category.  

This practices serves to distort the efforts and results of those true 
MULTI-OP entries that choose to open their stations for others to learn 
and participate in a group effort.  I am sure that many new contesters 
have been introduce to this facet of our hobby through just these types 
of MULTI-OP efforts.  

The UNLIMITED category will enable those participants to continue to 
push the technical limits of our hobby.  

Thanks for your help with this Charlie and 73. 

Jim/KC4HW
