Since I have done a lot of remote operating (just to get my HF station away from the noise). And, it is my station, my station only and I built it from scratch.
I have advised those of you getting on in years that the technology now exists go get 3 or 4 of you on the same project, while you can and build your own remote. You just need a quiet site with internet. Since you are retired by this point, you might need a hobby for your hobby. :) Mike va3mw On Tue, Dec 17, 2019 at 5:31 PM David Gilbert <xda...@cis-broadband.com> wrote: > > That's a pretty simplistic attitude, and probably a hypocritical one as > well.
