Topband: The Remote Question

I consider it another form of cheating.  Regardless of what the ARRL says.
Since when has the ARRL - DXCC been a bastion of ethics?  IMO ARRL ethics is
an oxymoron.

Without inserting politics into the discussion, all one has to do is look at
what is going in the world around us and it is clear the ARRL has fallen
into the same game plan.  Me, me, me and mini me.

What amazes me is all these 'cheaters' or 'cheater cheerleaders' voluntarily
admitting to cheating.  The contest committees need to study this effect to
get contest cheaters to admit to cheating on their own volition.

I just did a quick perusal of the current DXCC rules. If I understand them 
correctly:

1. Another ham can operate my station, using my call, and the contacts count
towards my DXCC.

2. I can go to his station, sign my call, and the contacts count towards my
DXCC.

So...the station doesn't matter and the operator doesn't matter. What the
heck
matters anymore?
