We do if we take the challenge of DXCC seriously. I started over when I
moved from Chicago to Santa Cruz 15 years ago. I would have viewed it as
cheating if I hadn't. I didn't start over when I moved the much shorter
distance from SW WV to Chicago.
There's obviously no
minimum length of time I have to remain at that new QTH, so it could be
an hour or 40 years.
Is the objection to the use of the internet to connect to that remote
station?
Some people object to anything that isn't what they thought ham radio
was 50 years ago. And what W4TV said -- that's MY objection.
The DXCC rule that a ham can operate from multiple locations anywhere in
the lower 48 (for example, San Diego, Seattle, Maine, and Florida) and
combine all of the QSOs for DXCC is ludicrous! Especially since the ham
but can't combine them if he were to move from Detroit across the
river to Windsor, ON.
