Sorry Ed. Not at my radio station.
At my station my definition applies. SO means (S)ingle (O)perater without
outside aides.
You are free to comply with your preferred definition at your station. I am
not obliged to use your dictionary.

In radiosport, the term "Assisted" (or "Unlimited") is defined by the

My definition of "assistance" is fairly narrow.
I define assistance as any "INFORMATION from outside which identifies the
call/QRG of other stations in the contest which I did not personally locate
and copy on the air".
That definition includes spots, skimmers, SCP data and other prefill
material not developed from MY on-the-air efforts.

Since this message is via email. I want to point out I am not being a
smart &??. Your points have validity, however where do you draw the
line on OUTSIDE assistance?
Did some one help you put up your antenna?
Did you finance your any of your stations equipment?
Did some one bring you food or drink during the contest?
Did you buy cable with connectors or did you put them on?
Contesting software can tell you what mults you need, an so on.
You get my point. I believe the only way to reasonably define OUTSIDE
assistance is a device or method that tells you DURING the contest what
freq a particular station is currently using. Whether that be by
cluster, a text message, a phone call and so on.
There was a very good conversation regarding this matter a Contest Univ
a few years back.
As I said in the first line, I am just pointing out that you can expand
the OUTSIDE assistance to many many topics.
Have a great day
