Topband: Use of Remote Receivers During 160 Meter Contests

[Lennart m]

Hi Bob, I always enjoy ur sigs from w US.
Please keep the station up and running.
Your setup is quite different from the ones in EU renting time in a n US
TX/RX station, running their full home callsign thus trying to improve their
own DXCC standiings.

Excellent application of a remote station....I see no problem with that.

are made on site. There have been times when weather prohibited me from
getting into the remote site safely. In that case I bag the test and make a
few random remote QSOs. All operation is from the remote and meets the
radius rules for receivers and transmitter.
