Dan - I’ve been licensed and active for 49 yrs so I guess I qualify as an “old timer” - but maybe not by some standards.

I enjoy FT8, and also SSB, CW, RTTY, FM, etc.    Thats the whole point - if you enjoy it don’t let others rain on your parade.
  
This thread would be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
