I can see the day coming when a person will no longer need a "station"
in the usual sense.  With internet control, he can simply operate a
station of his choosing - anywhere in the world.
Imagine a few years in the future:  Enterprising amateurs in various
countries have set up stations for rent all over the world.  You just
log on to their website, pay a modest fee by credit card, and operate
just as if you were there.  TX/RX, antenna selection and rotator
control, the whole thing, right there on your computer screen.  
The technology already exists to do this; it's just a matter of time,
IMO.  What a different world THAT will be.
Comments, anyone?
