Well Guys. Is this the beginning of the end of **"amateur radio"** DXing ?

No need for all that real estate and hard work on TB (or any band) receiving 
antennas. In fact don't even need a receiver any more, just a TX and 
internet connection?

If you thought Clusters and Chat rooms have contributed to a decline in the 
nobel art of DXing, it seems nothing compared to this SDR stuff :-((
