Well thanks Tom for adding another nail to the coffin. I guess the old
saying "if you can't beat them, then join them" got to you.
You are right on one point. The abolishment of the mileage limit helped
destroy the DXCC.

I wouldn't know who their customers are, or how many customers they have.
I only care how someone can use my station.
I don't really understand the fuss. The last good DXCC's were when we had a
mileage limit. Even then, someone could use a second site. It was actually
common to use second sites. W1BU did it from a swamp, even W1BB had two
stations. People used BC towers, it wasn't their stuff. One guy used a VOA
antenna system. Everyone used to admire that. People would go to other
stations as far back as I can remember.
People come here and operate all the time. They work new countries.
Now, suddenly, it is so unfair. How can we survive?
