Could it be that the security and sanctity, not to mention
the integrity, of DXCC is a little over-rated?
Where is the integrity in working the DX from any station
you choose (in your own country, of course)?
Where is the integrity in working the DX from a remote
station on the other side of your continent?
Where is the integrity in having someone else work the
DX using your call?
I got my DXCC in 1964 and then stopped counting. I have
not applied under my present call.
There are integrity issues in both contesting and DXing.
As a contester, I support the publication of contest logs.
