This thread has been addressed on various reflectors. I've tried it, made around 400 contacts or so, and found the mode pretty boring.  Even with my pileups on FT-8 the mode left me cold.  I felt the

There is simply no substitute for the real, direct, visceral connection one has with the person on the other end with either CW or SSB modes. I'll be in charge of the QSO, thank you. Not my computer.

Hi all, I agree with Tony K4QE and the others. Need human interaction or it ain't ham radio any more,. Prior to Stephen Hawking's death, he declared the greatest threat to human existence will be AI

Hi Dave and all. Cleaning my radio room but will keep a dear QSL card from year 2009 stating two different QSOs on SSB, reports 59, 58 and one on CW stating 569 CW. Oh, the card is from KH7C ex K9FD

Aloha Len, Remember those QSOs,  very rare SSB contact as I dont work SSB, but your signal was loud so I gave it a try. Good year for 160,  hoping they will return in the next couple years. 73 Merv

Bill just about summarized my feelings. I get no satisfaction from modes where I can't even hear anything in the speaker. I love that technology is marching forward, BUT I want to be there with it. I

So.... I get up at 3 in the morning and go down to the CW part of the band to see if I can hear any of you guys calling CQ. NADA ... from what I can tell, the band is dead. Not one signal. I go up to

This is all very comical to me and reached a hilarious high point last weekend. All of the CW folks say FT8 has destroyed CW activity on the band. Last weekend leading up to and during CQWW 160, all
