With respect Dan I must agree with Julian G4ILO. As I see it, and to use
your example, DSP and beams are the weapons used during the hunt, but the
hunter must also know when to hunt, where to hunt and know how to approach
the prey, skills gained through experience (apology to any DX who might read
this!). The weapons can be purchased, but once you start to replace the
skills with some form of 'automatic' system or crutch I believe that much of
the appeal in working DX is lost. DX Clusters are bad enough IMHO.

It's all a matter of where you draw the line. This is just more

Following your line of reasoning, we'd have to disqualify those using
DSP or beam antennas because it makes DXing harder for those that
don't have them.
