[TenTec] New technology

[Howellh]

When I stayed up all night working CW on 40 meters with a 6kc filter and a bug as a novice in 1958, my ultimate dream was a screen that showed all the calls and a mouse to click to work them.  That's why kids are flooding our ranks today.  No static, just waterfalls SDR.

I like my Orion, corsair II, Omni D and 509 argonaut.  The Collins S line will be tossed when I go I'm sure.  Guess my day is over.  

SDR radios are like fly fishing with a robot.  Who wants to feels those damned fish on the line anyhow?

Back to my crusty corner. A most interesting conversation.
