"For those of us who have been around amateur contesting a while (1966
here), you probably called the assistant who listens to the QSO and records
the QSO details a "logger." A single-op station could usually have one and
sometimes more, but none of them was allowed to transmit; doing so made the
entry Multi-Op."
He may have been thinking about Field Day, where clubs not all that into
contesting would have three guys at every station -- the guy who did the
sending, another to help him copy, and a third to log the QSO. I
encountered this in the '50s when I was starting out.
Thankfully, our club included several fine CW ops, one of whom, W8FUM,
was a serious contester who took me under his wing. Nothing I learned
later was in conflict with what he taught me.
