Topband: Use of Remote Receivers During 160 Meter Contests

[Peter Voelpel]

CQ is quit clear in the description of a contest location:

"The area in which all the transmitters, receivers and antennas are located.
All transmitters and receivers must be within a single 500-meter diameter
circle. Antennas must be physically connected by RF transmission lines to
the transmitters and receivers."

Anyway, I hear EA3JE almost daily on 80m receiving US stations via websdr in
the states and using big power to get over the pond. He doesn´t even bother
that his vox is acting on the audio from the remote receiver, so doing it
quasi full duplex.

Is that to become the future of low band contesting?

Not to try and sound disputatious but I think there must be some 
reasonable elasticity to the "same location" requirement within some 
reasonable limits like a preset mileage or grid square, and of course 
within the same country.
