| Having a remote receiver only a few miles away offers a huge advantage  
in single band contests over stations with everything on a single  
property. SO2R on 160m is normally pretty tough to do. Imagine how  
wonderful it would be to tune for new stations and/or multipliers  
while you're running on the same band and have no interference from  
your transmissions.

The fundamental problem is the slippery downward slope of rules in  
contest (allowing a remote receiver is a bad idea in my opinion -  
completely trashes decades of engineering and best practice in the  
contest) and the insanity of remote operating from the 4 corners of  
the continent in the US and being able to count it all for DXCC on 160M.
