2. Re: FT8 vs other modes This discussion has been fascinating for the breadth and depth of opinions.
The fundamental fact however is that this is a hobby with a wide range of options. FT8 will not be the end of CW operation. It is just another mode. Life is change. We cannot "live" in the past. Quoting Sgt Highway from "Heartbreak Ridge," "Improvise, Adapt, Overcome." Quoting my SGM from college, "Lead, follow, or get out of the way." Will I get on FT8? Maybe. I have not done RTTY since being in the Army.
