I think Pete has an excellent idea! Since multipliers count on
each band, a few CQ's on a "dead" band like 10 Meters could be
picked up by Skimmers and draw some action - more fun for
everyone!

Subject: [CQ-Contest] It's time for an Assisted category in NAQP
Judging by the commentary recently on various reflectors (and my
own
experience last weekend), it is time for NAQP to institute an
Assisted
category, rather than lumping all one-transmitter assisted
stations into
Multi-2. The M-2 class's band change rule makes zero sense for
one
transmitter assisted - I'll be losing credit for some QSOs
because it
never occurred to me that it would cover a single-transmitter
competitor.
ARRL 160 CW and ARRL 10M contests got rid of this anachronism a
few
years ago - it's time for NAQP to follow suit. I don't know who
decides
such things, but trust that Chris will know who needs to take
action.
