the other station isn't operating? He is making it possible for
me to keep my station on the air where in other cases it wouldn't

Oh man Tom! This will open acan of worms! ;-)) I don't agree, if the xyl
cooks supper or brings me sodas, is SHE another op?? Operators operate.
They make Q's. Now if the other station takes the key or mike while you make
a pitstop, or repair equipment, of course it is now M/O....
