Hi Tor,
Sorry to disagree, but I think you're wrong.
If you park a second receiver on another band and listen to it, YOU are
doing the listening.
Anytime YOU are doing something, it's not assistance.
Skimmer is not you.

Bogus argument.
If I park a 2nd receiver on another band while calling cq on band #1
(standard
SO2R) that clearly gives me "DX alerting assistance" of another kind as
well.
They clearly mean from other operators.
