No ... remote sites in "RF quiet" locations with room for large
antenna systems, particularly when located in "favored" locations 
outside the section/state/country of the operator are a significant 
advantage compared to the 'normal' operator who must put up with 
limitations of an apartment, HOA antenna restrictions, noise, etc.  
The current technology imposes a bit of a handicap on remote 
operation due to latency issues but that penalty will continue 
to narrow quickly.
