The FCC rules are quite specific in stating that you must use the
callsign ASSIGNED to the station you are operating. Therefore, running
over to your local superstation to work a new one is illegal as well
as the common practice of using a "callsign of convenience" at a
contest station. This fact seems to be ignored by both contest
committees and the ARRL.
