[CQ-Contest] CQ-Contest Digest, Vol 277, Issue 9

[Drew Vonada-Smith]

Let's not call Paul a troll.  He's got an opinion and point of view I have much sympathy with.  He repeats it because he believes in it.  You don't have to, but you should at least tolerate it.  It's true that these things (remote, internet, etc) are part of radio life now and that won't change.  I'm not trying to change anyone's opinion or what you do in the hobby.  But the opinion is perfectly legitimate, and we most definitely have lost something, along of course with some gains.  We'll all disagree on the measures of each.

For those of you that don't agree with my opinion, that's of course perfectly fine and expected.  For those of you that don't even understand it, please consider reading "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance".  Pirsig says it better than I ever could.

73, Drew K3PA
