On 01 January 2007, while I was running 20W to a backpack whip antenna Pedestrian Mobile in Hong Kong, I worked John W1CDO. He was S9 on 20 meters. I could barely hear anyone else in North America at the time. Quite an impressive station! The fact that he was controlling it on his laptop computer, 1500 miles away from it, was even more impressive. Bonnie KQ6XA As the Roaming Gnome says, Oh frashthe TRW ARC was controlling a SSB station vis telephone in the early 1990s and by 1995 they were controling a RTTY or AMTOR rig via the Internet and it was frequency, band and antenna aiming capable. Ok, I'll give you that it took a rather large computer bac then to do it...I think a 200 MHz ATT 3B2-600G. :-) Walt/K5YFW
