Yeah, I aim to hunt for more 0G QSOs on my K4D, but awaits the ability
to update for K4HD to hunt the SSB and CW deeply burried in 5G contest
noise. ;-)

I think you're missing the point of Wayne's humorist post. I also like 0G
on my K3S!

I have a couple of phones that I just put month-to-month sim cards from
Ting into. They're served by T-Mobile. One of my old phones is definitely
getting obsoleted out, but that's fine, it's an ancient 2g "Feature Phone"
I got from Ebay on a whim. I don't THINK it's a 3g phone...it's one of
those Samsung Gravity "Sidekick" style keyboard phones. The only other
phone I have one of those cards in is my Inrico 320, and that's safely 4g.
I'll probably deactivate the card from the old feature phone rather than
pay line charges on it, and buy a new card if I get another phone. I'm not
worried about the Gravity, it only cost me about $40 on Ebay anyway, and it
was just a whim to get a cool phone I couldn't afford when it was actually
popular.

Major cellular networks are planning to phase out 3G support in favor of
4G and 5G, starting this month with AT&T. This will render useless
millions
of cell phones, home alarm systems, car security systems, and "I've fallen
and I can't get up!" buttons.
As an Amateur Radio service subscriber, you'll be relieved to know that
*your* communications service will not be affected. Elecraft is fully
committed to noninterference with the physical laws governing ionospheric
propagation. Further, we promise to never sell any spectrum without
advance
notice.
3G has had a good run. But it can't match the longevity of 0G.
