I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your post was tongue-in-cheek, but for one thing you have to schedule a station amid competition from other hams wanting to do it. For another, the cost isn't trivial if you plan to do it on a regular basis or use one of the bigger stations. The example you cite costs about $1 per minute.
I think RHR is a fine idea for contests and one-off activities, but it hardly makes sense for general access to the bands.
And THAT's why everyone isn't doing it ... Dave AB7E On 12/17/2019 11:41 AM, William Levy wrote:
A laptop, an iPad or iPhone will allow you to ham all you want. Let other folks worry about the antennas and maintenance. www.remotehamradio.com I live in an apartment in NYC and I have huge towers with stacked antennas, 160mm 4 squares, 80 meter 4 squares located on the East Coast and the West Coast. Are you renting the space in your retirement home? Why not rent your radio too! This is such a simple solution I don't know why everyone isn't doing it. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
