CW has personality - therefore CW QSOs have personality. Digital not so
much - press F3, F6, then to say 73s etc. press F9. Not much of a QSO to
me.
Whether SSB, CW, RTTY, or whatever - it is all about rag chew to me. I
cannot get excited about coming into the shack in the morning and
looking at the computer screen to see who the computer QSOd with over
night.
I miss the hours long RTTY gab fests on 40 meters many years ago. Sure
we had our tapes, but we would keyboard all afternoon sometimes. Just
cannot find that now. The art of gabbing has gone the way of the Tweet.
Just my take - that is what makes Ham radio so great. So many facets to
keep us active.
