Well said, John! The enemy is the wildly excessive RF noise all around us, not innovative digital modes that help us dig weak signals out of it. We need to put our energies into killing that noise, not fighting for the return of spark!

While we squabble over digi modes taking over, there are more pressing issues on amateur 
radio  such as increasing QRM, QRN levels. Perhaps we need to exert our energies 
into  clearing the bands of these issues first. There are now many kiwi sdr recivers 
online which can triangulate stations pretty accurately and they can be named and shamed 
! or even black listed. Another issue is the encroaching OTR. At least the digimoder's 
occupy the bands while we squabble to and fro.
