All remotes are not the same. There's a huge difference between a rent-a-superstation in Maine remote vs. a guy who lives in a condo or deed restricted community who puts up his own remote station. AD8J in Asheville, NC, comes to mind. 
And are not the remotes in Maine all competing against each other, and not against ordinary stations back in Ohio or California or wherever?

The advantage lies in having remote capability.  If this occasionally 
seems unfair, then having a separate category for remotes could make it 
fairer.

K5ZD, a Director of WWROF, said earlier in this thread - "I don't think 
this is something that WWROF can assist with."
