Oh, I forgot to mention that SSB operators will be required to either build
radios stations at their work, call in sick, or take vacation days while
waiting for
SSB to happen. They will have stay in front of the radio for 18 hours each day
and sleep on the floor of their shacks with their headphones on, listening to
RTTY
tones for hours hoping the tones will end and we will go to SSB. When they do
stop
hearing those RTTY tones, they will go find us on CW, where the SSB operators
will then have to go back to sleep on the floor of their shacks with their
headphones
on, listening to CW.
