While I don't completely disagree, CLARC, has had PSK at field day a
number of times for that very reason and the most of the sub 18 y/o
visitors found it "BORING" because it was soooooooooo slow.  Some
appreciated the technology involved but that was a small percentage.
The vast majority were NOT impressed and we are surrounded by NASA /
NASA contractor families.  YMMV
