Now THAT is a cool video. How many operators can say they have operated
like this? They better be pretty darn good!

It looks like NO3M had lots of fun using Ham Radio 0.5 during Field Day
2016. He didn't slow down the Ham Radio 2.0 ops at all.

Hi Zack
If all us old curmudgeons who don't really care for 'Ham Radio 2' and we
just
'get out of the way of the ones who do', who are you going to talk to in a
contest?
Probably a lot of us out there that prefer 'Ham Radio 1', where you
actually had to look for your own contacts instead of depending on
technology to find them for you.
Pretty soon the contest bands are going to sound like most of the SSB ops
on FD - 'Please Copy'. 73
