Couple of other hams joined me in the shack last night.
(tight fit just for me, much less others)
We were watching some of the 'crabbing' on the packet cluster.
Someone was complaining about how HARD it was to work the new country.
One of the guys said..."It ain't SUPPOSED to be easy".
A light went on...He was right.
Whether DXing or Contesting, it's supposed to be a challenge.
It's overcoming pileups, poor propagation, less than state of the art
equipment, that
makes completing the qso/contest enjoyable.
If a marathon was 'easy', it wouldn't be in the Olympics.
