Though an SWL in my youth, I didn't set foot in an operating amateur radio station until the age of 40, when my older son's scout troop participate in JOTA. We both earned our novice tickets in 1990,

Bruce,
Not wanting to start again is not at issue. What is at issue is at what point a move represents a sigificant change in propagation.
I don't pretend to have all the answers, but Americans,

Re: Proposed Changes to DXCC for Remote Stations - Charge to DXAC
I have a remote station 40 km away from my residence. I am opposed to this rule change because it creates a great deal of inequity.
If I move my residence to 300 km away, but leave my station where

Re: Proposed Changes to DXCC for Remote Stations - Charge to DXAC
To be clear, people should be able to use remotes or any other station withing the borders of their country. I could have houses on all coasts and be legal under the new proposal yet

Okay but I don't want to use a remote site. If I moved 1000 miles away and I built a new station, would I need to start over again? As the rules are now, no but if the rules change then what?

Re: Proposed Changes to DXCC for Remote Stations - Charge to DXAC
Bruce, NJ3K,
As W0MU noted, you could use a remote in an area that is reasonably close to your former residence.

Re: Proposed Changes to DXCC for Remote Stations - Charge to DXAC
Remotes are allowing those in nursing homes or retirement homes the opportunity to play radio and takes up no more space than an Ipad or computer! This is a great and wonderful thing.
