It was facinating to listen to 160M from a receiver based in Europe.
Tremendously strong sigs in the PC speaker. I called CQ on 1815 and

Well Guys. Is this the beginning of the end of **"amateur radio"** DXing ?
No need for all that real estate and hard work on TB (or any band) receiving
antennas. In fact don't even need a receiver any more, just a TX and
internet connection?
If you thought Clusters and Chat rooms have contributed to a decline in the
nobel art of DXing, it seems nothing compared to this SDR stuff :-((
