[CQ-Contest] Remote Control in Contests

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

You misunderstand.

The operator of the remote station cannot count contacts made from the 
remote station if the remote station is located in a different country.

If I created a station on KP2 I could not count any DXCC that I worked 
for my DXCC totals as W0MU.

If you worked me as KP2 you would get credit for KP2 as you worked a 
station located in KP2.  The operator was located elsewhere.
