[NLRS] VHF Contesting: Single Operator Assisted Class

[W0ZQ at aol.com]

Hello NLRS land.

As your Dakota Division  VUAC representative I can tell you that the ARRL 
VUAC has been directed to  address the following question - Should there be a new 
category in the VHF/UHF  contests called "single operator assisted" ?  The 
implications would be  that such a station could use APRS, the Internet, and 
other means of  assistance.

What I would like to know from you is:

1.  Is  this a significant issue for you, either as a yes or strong yes, or a 
no or  strong no.
2.  If this is an issue for you, why.
3.  Would you  favor or not favor such a classification and why.
4.  Any other  comments/questions you may have.

I am interested in all NLRS members  comments, especially Dakota Division 
members.  For those NLRS members  outside of Dakota Division, I encourage you to 
share (CC:) your comments with  your VUAC Division Rep.  You can find yours at 
 http://www.arrl.org/contests/vuac.html .  Let me know if you need an email  
address.

73, Jon
