[Dx-qsl] Remote station time-share for only $30/mo!

[Roberto Rey]

Your opinion is as respectable as mine and I say that the DXCC is and will 
always be a individual achievement.. can we let go this now?
If you don't like the new rules go into collecting seashells, but as 
somebody said before, spare us the dramatics!

Relinquish your ham license or do whatever you want, but can we stop beating 
the dead horse now?
