And it's accreditation that is a logical reason for DXCC to require that the control point be located within the same DXCC entity as the transmitter and receiver. A remote operation without need for
You didn't ask for it, but here is my 2 cents worth anyway. It seems to me that the purpose of a ham radio contest is to contact other stations at other locations - that other signal emanating from s

Seems to me that as long as all the signal origination (transmitter) and signal capture (receiver) points reside in a single 500m circle, there's really no issue here. The results would be no differe
I agree with Bill....I don't particularly like it but I agree. I think the most important point he made was the last one. "The key behavior we're looking to prevent is the use of multiple receiving a
By Honor: just the same way that we all assume that when someone enters a competition claiming 100W or less, they REALLY ARE running 100W or less ;o| Steve, K0XP _____________________________________
I'm with both Bills on this one. As long as there is only one site, and the operator is only claiming the site of the actual RF generation as his location (a VE4 operating remotely to a KP4 site must

Not to start this thread again but, as one who was quite vocally (typingly, anyway) opposed to long distance remote stations, I have to disagree with that comment, Kelly. I am more envious of the op
Having done some playing with remote operation - I think it would be hard to be as effective as an operator when using a remote station - compared to being there in person. The biggest issue is late

I hold it to be self-evident that not all QSOs are created equal, and that they are devalued to the extent that there is a substitute for RF in the path between the operators. For example: 1. Skype Q

I often use a voice keyer that is implemented as an ISA card installed in the logging computer. Because of where the computer is located in the shack, my effective microphone cable length can be 30'
No - contest rules typically permit wired circuits within a 500-meter circle. I care deeply about amateur radio. There's no practical difference between your 3000 km microphone line, and a 3000 km Ec
I've had my K2/100 on my LAN using the K2 remote & server software. Even on a 100MB LAN the delay is, as Tree says, unacceptable except for a FD type operation! And ..... there is absolutely nothing

As far as I can interpret those, that distance/diameter is meant for RF-generating/emmitting/receiving station elements and not for baseband and control signals. Actually that is a radio contact betw
I agree remote control is a reality. All I'm trying to do is put down a marker for controlling and regulating it for the purposes of contesting and award chasing. I maintain, and I know the remote-co
