Yep. All you need nowadays is a credit card. You can be on Honor Roll
without ever seeing a radio or antenna. Gotta be a little like kissing your
sister.

ARRL is going to stand for American Remote Radio League before too much
longer. DXCC's best days are behind us.

Rule ten of DXCC makes it all about the operator's call signs (multiple). It
doesn't have to be his equipment or station. If it is his equipment, he
doesn't even have to be the operator as long as it is with (one of) his
call(s).

The ARRL apparently doesn't have a problem with people using someone else's
station to work DXCC. Following the rules, someone can earn DXCC and never
have personally made a single contact, or a person could have DXCC and never
have made a contact using his own station.
