So consider this....
I'm sitting in Arizona, operating a station in Norway by remote control. OK, no problem so far, right?
Now, suppose I also have a receiver at my Arizona location, tuned to the same freq, and monitoring replies to my calls from Norway.
Gee, I must have a really great antenna/receiver in Norway 'cos I seem to be the only Norway station that can hear all those low power/qrp stateside guys calling me through the qrm and noise. Sure. I can answer 'em from Norway, but I'm really hearing them in Arizona.
Fair?
