[CQ-Contest] Expeditions Remote

As a homeowner in an antenna-restricted community, I have to say "Thank 
heavens that the luddites are not making the rules!" The only way that I 
can now participate in amateur radio is via an internet connection to a 
remote station. From there, all contacts are over the air and the 
stations that I use are fully compliant with contest rules. It isn't 
cheap, by any means, (a few hours in a weekend contest can cost several 
hundred dollars), but at least I can get on the air and hand out some 
QSOs to other contesters. If you think that my remote operating is not 
"real amateur radio", you are free not to work me and not get the QSO in 
your logbook.
