Mike, this is what I found in the HF rules:

"2.3.Multioperator: More than one person performs transmitting, receiving and 
logging functions, etc. Multioperator stations are divided into subcategories: 

2.3.1.Multioperator, Single Transmitter: Stations are allowed only one 
transmitted signal at any given time. 

2.3.1.1.In those contests that do not have Single Operator Assisted class, this 
category includes those single operators that use any form of spotting 
assistance such as from nets or packet. 

2.3.1.2.Includes those that receive assistance with logging or relief 
operators, etc. 

2.3.1.3.Limited to 6 band changes (maximum) in any clock hour. 

2.3.1.3.1.The clock hour is from zero through 59 minutes. 

2.3.1.3.2.Band changes are defined so that, for example, a change from 20 
meters to 40 meters and then back to 20 meters constitutes two band changes. 

2.3.1.4.Violation of the 6-band change rule or improper logging will result in 
an entry reclassification to the Multi-operator Multitransmitter class"

The rule now appears to be identical to M-2.

73, Pete N4ZR
