> If one does not have the internet, then a contester is at a handicap in competing if they do not self spot. Amateur radio is about RF, not the internet. Those who have bad internet service or have to pay for satellite rates because of their location are penalized.
For many years I operated as 6W1RY. As soon as I transmitted at my QTH, the router would fail and there was no Internet. I made many thousands of QSOs because of my RF signals.
I will be TM5A this weekend as SOAB. No self spotting. If you hear me, give me a QSO.
