My two cents...


I've got no problem with advances in technology, but I chose to use what I want 
to use...and it ain't FT-8.  Every mode other than FT-8 requires a person to 
tune in a station and to take part in the contact.  The idea of being able to 
take a nap and make QSOs while my computer is talking to yours leaves me cold.  
I understand the use for weak signal work, but if I can't "hear" him, I didn't 
make the Q, my computer did.


If that's your idea of fun, go to it.  I'll stick to more buggy and whip 
stuff...like busting pileups or running a 250 hour.  Things that require 
operating technique skill  of a human being.
