We are all entitled to our opinions and, of course, they may differ from others. I'm fine with thoughtful discussion. I think it's healthy.
I do, however, tire of always having the technology bit thrown in my face. It is NOT an objection to new technology, including the use of remote operations. It has to do with the award(s) process. IMVHO, CQ got it right; a separate award for using remote operations. After all, it is the use of remote, correct? I find it curious that some (or most) of those using remote object to that. I wonder why, and would like to hear your reasoning. 73 John W4II _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
