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.

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.
