Personally I find these thoughts disturbing.
Are we to judge ourselves and our morals , interests etc
against the beliefs of some unknown individual, sitting
at his keyboard from god knows where ?
Ed you are basically saying that those who use modes (ft8)
not approved by " your standards are unworthy".
If you feel ft8 etc is not for you, thats fine, but do not
begrade others by the operating choices they make.
It seems that the reflectors have provided a forum for some
folks to accuse and berate others who have dissimilar interests.
I feel that this behaviour in the long run will be the eventual
demise of the hobby. Although I hope I am wrong.

what
we get in my opinion. If we decide that the band counter is so important
we
don't care how we have to get it, then its time to look in the mirror
folks.
- On the other hand, maybe some people are happier with the
computer doing the heavy lifting of digging out the QSO. Personally,
count
me out of that list.
