Great info on Radio In A Box.
How do you think DXCC will view this ?

At the most recent Visalia in 2019 (and later at Dayton, I think), George
presented two feats of engineering excellence that blew me away. First, his
"Radio In A Box" has the potential to revolutionize DXpeditioning to islands,
drastically reducing their cost, the number of hams needed, man-hours spent on
the island, and the resulting impact on the island's natural state. All of
this has the potential to make it far easier to obtain permissions from
authorities.
Second, his observations that during DXpeditions, topband openings tend to
occur on one night out of a couple of weeks, and that since CW and FT8 are the
dominant modes for weak signal work, both need to active whenever there is the
likelihood of propagation (that is, between the daylight sides of the
terminator), led him to devise a system to achieve that.
Both of these achievements are described on the qrz page for C6AGU. If you've
missed them up to now, by all means check it out!
