I don't understand the issue; the above is the essence of DXing isn't it?

I totally agree with Bruce. Regardless of the method (or no method for that
matter) used by the DX operator the outcome should depend on operator skill
and station engineering. In situations where DX operators say they are
listening from 200 to 225, how close is that to throwing a dart blind
