Dave:

Even in Larry's case, where

a private remote station with (I understand) both receiver and transmitter

at the

same location is used, and provided the location of this remote station is

used on

any confirmation, is probably OK.

"Even", "provided" and "probably OK"?????  I rarely differentiate between
remote TX or RX or in many cases both in use at one time for one reason or
another.

Any claims for best
dx or personal satisfaction in working a particular station is thrown

completely out

of the window.  It is this deceipt aspect which I think has much upset Ron

G6RO, who

rightly thought his signals were being heard in Windsor and not Crawley.

"thrown completely out of the window" and "deceipt"???????????????????????

but wish to make it clear that there are quite a few of us with big

reservations

about this 'new technology' tool.

Dave, have all the reservations you want, I have no problem with that.  I do
have a problem when words like "probably OK" and "deceipt" are "thrown"
around.  From what I read here it seems that you have a problem with what is
going on, I urge you to keep your words as your explicit problem.  There is
not in general a problem.

Regards,

Larry
