I agree with Jim. Spot. Spot Spot.  I drums up business for the  mobiles, 
and even for fixed stations.  But, it also "promotes" the party to  others.  
If guys lots of spots, they might be more inclined to get  on...thinking 
they missing out on something!
 
Spot Spot Spot!

Don't  forget, for those of you so inclined, that you can "spot" mobiles 
(or fixed  stations in rare counties at http://ch.w6rk.com/.  This site is 
easy to  use, doesn't annoy DXers, and will help assure that if a mobile hits a 
new  county that he/she doesn't just sit there calling fruitlessly after 
the  initial contact.  This is especially useful for those "jumps" to 80  
during the day and for those mobiles who are unable to find a spot amidst the  
RTTY on 40 and have to go down around 7025 to be heard....or for those who  
might take a chance on 15 or 10 meters opening and actually find someone to  
work!

There is not, nor has there been, any "assisted" category.   Go for it.


Self-spotting is possible here but is discouraged  (executive decision) and 
may fall under "unsportsmanlike conduct"  clauses....

Let the games begin...in about 26 hours...
