For what its worth, I subscribe to the idea that unassisted means just
that. It means I sit in front of my radio, plotting every move without the
aid of the cluster, RBN, even grey line charts. I tune the band(s) I am
on, running when I can, S&P for multipliers and generally having fun.
I get frustrated when I find a guy running without giving his call and I
curse and swear every time I waste precious minutes after finding out he's
already in my log. I give my call after every QSO. But then I'm just a
little pistol with little chance of winning. So I'm not trying for a
gazillion QSOs to show off how big my thing is.

With the best band high band conditions in years, it warms many hearts to
see that the radio-sport lawyers are still on the job interpreting contest
rules, and looking for loopholes to get it "their way." Simply amazing.
Atta-boys !
If you're finding stations by any means other than you tuning your radio
and finding it itself, you're assisted.. Only my opinion.
