This is a good example of the entitlement crowd attitude. They believe that
all the DXCC entities need to be available NOW, no waiting. Reaching the
top of the honor roll was long term plan that kept us interested in DXing
for a lifetime. Now some want it to be just like a mail order degree ... no
work and instant gratification. Just like our schools ... no one fails ...
everyone passes.

I really believe all this concern where the operator is actually seated
will be somewhat lessened when someone is able to get a compact plug and
play emote controlled briefcase size setup in P5. The operation would
not require a visa and radio clubs could share in providing the
operators. A 100 watt package with a 20-10 vertical placed in a utility
room on the top floor of the 1082 foot high Ryugyong hotel in downtown
Pyongyang for the cost of just having the hotel feature on the QSL card.
Some of the QSL proceeds cold go to a help establish a radio club in
PDRK and those techies there could probably end up securing a proper
license for the system. Just think of North Korean being on the air
24/7 and everyone would have a chance to finally get this most rare an
elusive country confirmed. the badmouthing of remote controlled stations
would end.
