[KCDXC] A thought

I've been thinking....

With all the contacts the KCDXC has, would it be possible to find a few
(conspiring hams) on the EAST and WEST coasts to allow the KCDXC to use some
of their antennas "remotely".  Here's my felonious thought. Since remote
operation is possible, use of Kachina type systems has been around for
awhile. What (other than morals) prevents a group of conspiring hams from
setting up a system of listening (and maybe even transmitting) antennas in a
few choice locations around the globe? I'm NOT serious about this (unless
someone want to spoof the contest community). (Maybe a KCDXC Contest SPOOF
Video is in order)? The evolution of contesting! From paper logs to remote
stations!

Could it be explained that the "skewed paths" we hear about on the
mysterious 160M band are nothing more than remote antennas transmitting or
receiveing?
