Which I understand and respect.
Local RF noise here too is a major bitch.
So is my neighbors wife.

But during the contests the operator should travel to the remote site and put
his but in that chair.

No remote operating during contests, OR would you say it is NOT tempting to do
illegal local RX on your FD4, work zillions of mults on Lowbands and pretend to
be listening from remote site cross-continent only?

Similar to "Europeans telling they do not exceed 1K5" but recently all upgraded
to the "more reliable xx-4000".
Oh wait, that's another discussion. 
And hams do not cheat.
