As ham radio changes there will remain at least a niche for CW, SSB, and
RTTY and it's competitions. FT8 will supplement the bands , not supplant
it, IMO. Do you think FT8, FT4 and whatever digital modes come along are
the future or will something else take its place? Who knows... time and
technology moves on. Maybe it might attract some of the Millennials to
fill in the void by us Baby Boomers who will all too soon be making.
Let's set a good example for them to follow.

Ah so all FT8 users are cheaters. Does that mean that all Russian
hams use way more power than they should and their scores should not
count either?
The real issue here is change. Ham radio has been in constant motion
and change since it started and I hope in continues that way well
after we are dead.
So we better stop FT8 and protect VE1ZZ?
Sorry no.
Good day.

Hello, Mike
This is how the world works so that humanity always has moral
values.
They must be protected.
Example:
in a few years, 334 VE1ZZ countries will lose their value. His
achievements will be eaten by computer programs and robots ....
It is right ?
Will there be many talents at 160 meters like Jack?
Will not be !
On the contrary - more and more stupidity and envy....

Cheating is cheating. How many people used remote stations,
exceeded
their power limits, etc. Singling out a mode because you are
upset
that it has taken away activity in your preferred mode is not
helpful
to the hobby. Not everyone that use FT8 cheats. Not everyone
that
uses a amp that exceeds their legal limit uses it in that fashion.
How can you guarantee that everyone on the "Honor Role" was 100
percent honorable or even anyone that got DXCC did it right? You
can't so please stop singling out a mode you don't care for. We
get
it. Move on. It is here. Just like the Reverse beacon, packet
cluster, etc.
We are all hams enjoying many aspects of the hobby. Can't we get
along?
