Well as far as I'm concerned Mike, FT8 would just be my computer having a contact, not me personally . . . so it's not something I would ever be interested in. But if that's the case, it's even more

You maybe correct Roger. I was just telling you where they all went. :) I often hear .. no one on CW on 160M, but if you then look at the FT8 passband, it looks like 20M. Now, with FT4 coming, we mig

Hi Mike, I respect that, but Id guess the aging population of Topband Ops only explains a small part of the lack of CW activity. 73, Bob AA6VB Sent from my iPhone On Apr 22, 2019, at 1:56 PM, Mike Wa

Hello Topbanders. . . In my opinion the lack of activity centers on a few key issues: 1. There is no denying FT8 has siphoned off a lot of CW activity, easily proven by a quick tune of the band any n

Roger, Is your statement that you dont have enough opportunities to rag-chew on 160M? There is plenty of CW activity if/when there is a new DXCC entity to be had like VI9NI. Lots of OPs are calling w

Just as a note , most of the DX operations on 6 meters moved to FT8 because of the short, almost momentary  nature of many 6 meter DX openings. But w hen the band supports longer prop ag ation period

This is not always the case. I have noticed long openings to Caribbean during last year 6m season with signal levels good enough for reliable CW QSOs but only FT8 portion of the band was alive. Will

YES SORRY but FT 8 has killed Amateur Radio more or less. Instead there is a computer game going on.Computers picking up signals not even being able to be heard by humans. Real shame. And ARRL allow

I get that many stations only use FT8 these days (out of laziness?) . . . But there are plenty of Top Band DXers (like me) who would never ever use FT8 . . . but many of these people hardly ever come

Let's ponder: FT8 - everyone is on ONE center frequency (passband) and their computer is transmitting every 15 seconds for hours on end, regardless if they are in contact with another computer or not
