When you read the forum...Another ditto from me. :)<br /><br />When you read the forums and blog posts about working DX it seems clear that working pileups and other peoples' bad operating makes DXers annoyed and frustrated. So why do it?<br /><br />Who needs a hobby that gets you stressed and angry?

New DXCC for me!<br />But I also enjoy a QSO with <b>50 mW</b> or less.Bert, PA1Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14064917598289627232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071048343455395511.post-80014785992609887562012-05-07T18:29:32.263+01:002012-05-07T18:29:32.263+01:00Ditto that! :-)Ditto that! :-)Michael, AA1TJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538000826572081873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071048343455395511.post-32103608862950650692012-05-07T16:57:34.738+01:002012-05-07T16:57:34.738+01:00Hi tmw,

I know it is a huge thing, but I spend all of my time thinking about a low parts count project, or digital signal processing. I sincerely appreciate this post, and all of them as always!tmwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03118398894759578877noreply@blogger.com
