Hello Zack;
From the Contest University website - 2024 contest terminology glossary by N9RV:
In-band Station
A station (and operator) that is used on the same band as a Run Station that
typically calls other stations who are
calling CQ on other frequencies within the band (S&P mode). The in-band station
must be inhibited from
transmitting at the same time as the Run Station transmits to conform to the
rules of most contests. An In-Band
Station also needs filtering and receive antenna separation to be able to copy
weak signals on the band while the Run
Station is transmitting. Sophisticated multi-operator stations make extensive
use of in-band stations to work new
stations as well as multipliers. Multiple in-band stations, suitably
interlocked, have been used as well.
