Back in the 1950's or 60's there was a great cartoon in QST showing an anthropomorphic robot who looked like he was made out of junk box parts flailing away operating a Ham station in a contest while the Ham relaxed in the next room.
It seems we have arrived. OTOH, there is the challenge of building the robot and making it work that is sure to appeal to many, while some of us prefer to ride a horse instead of a 4-wheeler, split fire wood with an axe instead of a hydraulic ram and on the air we quite literally "pound brass". It's amazing how broad the range of interests in Ham radio have become. 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill W4ZV Sent: Saturday, November 21, 2015 2:05 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] didn't make myself very clear :( "So very few controls would actually be needed. Come to think of it, an operator wouldn't even be needed!" BINGO! And how much fun would that be?
