[CQ-Contest] RDXC updated FAQ - Remote operation

[Pete Smith]

Tom, I'm quite aware of cq-contest's less than universal readership, but 
still think that organizers of a major contest like RDXC would have 
someone watching for controversies of the sort this has caused.

I have, indeed, written to the organizers - and will report whatever 
they say.
