Uhhhh....I guess I don't understand the last phrase.

What's simple about getting up from the rig, walking to the coat closet, 
getting my coat and hat and boots and mittens, going outside to my tuner 
that's located at the feedpoint of my antenna, turning the knobs in -20 
degree weather, and returning to the house where I go through the 
reverse process, only to find the DX that I was going to chase has 
disappeared?
