Don't forget K9DX's 160 meter antenna site was remotely operated. My hat
is off to John for the design and construction of that site.

Many of you folks are too sensitive, especially to legitimate use of
remotes. Yes, DX'ing and constesting on a competitive level can be

I agree, Bob, and I also agree with W8JI. Building a remote station is
NOT easy -- I've not done it myself, but as an EE and a designer of
many complex professional sound systems, I appreciate the
cross-disciplinary systems engineering that goes into doing it well.
I've known about your remote station for years, and have nothing but
the greatest respect for your accomplishment. K6TU, K6IE, and K6XX are
three more guys I know who have done it.
