Not sure about V2.0, but, the other day I called CQ with V 1.9 and then went
back into the house, had some coffee, and chatted with my XYL. When I went back
to the shack I was surprised to see that my PC had completed a QSO with a
station in Indonesia. If I had an automated CQ (which doesn't seem that
technically difficult) that would have been a fully computer controlled QSO.
What am I missing here?
I do enjoy an occasional FT-8 QSO but I'm not much of a fan of FT-8 contesting.
It's just a matter of time before we will have a fully automated contest.

Lots of people repeat lots of things they hear from others that turn out
to be false. When I was growing up it was called gossip.
