I wonder what constitutes a QSO on some digital modes. Using Opera you can click the auto QSO button and even automatically upload the 'QSO' to eqsl. The op does not have to do anything much other than watch the screen. You could get your DXCC by just leaving the computer running long enough. Thing is who would get the award, the computer or the OP? No contact with other human beings and minimal effort. Buy a radio, an antenna and a PC, download the software, add you details to the prog and let it run? Is that what the hobby has come to? Colin - G8FRA/M5FRA m5fra.org.uk <http://www.m5fra.org.uk>
