OK. I have a DXCC award on my wall. It is from Los Gatos, CW.
It's showing 185 mixed confirmed in my logbook. I moved to NH in
2019. My NH log shows 106 mixed confirmed. (I keep separate logs
for NH and CA contacts.) It's a bit hard to get the union of the
two logs, but the results will be higher than 185 due to the
ease of EU contacts. (I think, if I've done my uploads to
Clublog correctly, they have the correct count.) My only answer
to all the questions about the situation is to fall back on the
DXCC rules which say that all these contacts count.
I really don't think the amateur radio community has wrapped its
mind around the fact that many of us move around the country a lot.

Jim, I agree, rental hopping for the purposes of DXCC or
similar, is equally immoral and as such, should be banned from
such awards. Use your own, a club or a friends station WHILE
physically there if your morality reaches that far. Mine
doesn't; I've used other stations and entered into THEIR log,
not mine (the station is not mine, simple).
