Well I have been chasing DX for 54 years and I have most likely
read
about your report of remote operation being OK for DXCC, tho I
really do not remember it now. All I can say is Wow, I think I
need to reread about this rule. You may remember my previous
posts of my dissatisfaction with ARRL rules pertaining to DXCC
and FT8. Now this.
Why did I work so hard to get DXCC of 286 on 40 meters when
this is
available and FT8 to boot! Not cool Ria.

ARRL declared this type of remote operation OK for DXCC some years ago -
you can operate from W6, work Macau, minami torishima, Philippines etc then
hop on a remote on the east coast and work Europe and Africa. Hop on a
southeast remote and work ZS, PY, LU, CE, CP etc. Owning a station is not
even necessary.

« +WAE…»- So?
Does DARC allow remote receivers within 100 km to be used? And allows such
QSO to be claimed towards achieving WAE award?
What if the operator used remote receiver to make a QSO on 80 or 160 m,
and then he applies such QSO towards award? Will it count?
What about others, who don’t use remote receivers? Are they “in the same
boat” with remote operators in order to get the award? I often hear West
Coast stations using remote site from New England without even signing
portable. Will those QSO’s be O.K. with ARRL for DXCC credit? Must be nice
to work some rare Pacific countries on 160 from CA and then work EU and AF
countries from Maine and get excellent Topband DXCC standing! What’s ARRL’s
policy on that?
In my HUMBLE opinion (I’m in no way an expert like most people on this
reflector) the contest rules must be in line with the award rules, or such
contest QSO’s shouldn’t be counted towards the respected awards.

The country multipliers for the CQWW 160 contest (and DX contest) are
based on DXCC + WAE countries.

" Why should they be?" - Because multipliers in the contests like CQ WW
