""Dialing for DX" is not amateur radio!!!"

Do you know how many DX entities I have worked or confirmed?  If you knew would 
you care?  Does the fact that that I may have worked some DX using other 
stations make less DX available for you to work?

I regard my DX count as a personal achievement.  I choose to work all my DX 
from "my" station but it's a very long time since I could claim that I built 
everything in my station and even then I didn't fabricate the bottles, 
resistors and capacitors.  Most of those came from equipment I had cannibalized.

I have a good friend who will happily go to a good station in town to work 
Bouvet if it is ever activated again.  If he works Bouvet good luck to him.  I 
don't want to work Bouvet unless it is from my station.  That's my choice and 
it doesn't impact anyone else.

I don't care what station anyone else operates.  I do care if they operate a 
remote station and declare that they are somewhere else.  Those lies do impact 
me if I'm gullible enough to a attempt a QSO.
