#Remote Contesting

Remote contesting means operating a contest station that is not in the same place as the operator, using a network connection to control the radio. It brings its own questions about latency, audio quality and the rules for the location of the station. Articles under this tag explain these points in general terms and remind the reader to read the rules of each contest and of the licence. They also describe the logging habits that help when the operator and the station are far apart. The tag does not describe any particular product.
