Aw, Keith let the cat out of the bag!
It was Schrodinger's cat, actually. :-) Might as well fill you in as
much as I can...
Keith and I have been part of an ultra-secret Beta test team for the K5
for some time now (I think). The K5 utilizes an entirely new technology
that produces a communication medium by modulating dark energy to
produce quantum resonance with an infinite number of possible parallel
reality states, thus allowing us to communicate with other
similarly-equipped hams -- alternative, parallel instances of other
hams, actually, since randomly connecting with the instantaneous quantum
state of one's own reality plane is vanishingly unlikely. We'll leave
that to all the obsolete electromagnetic guys still using K3s and the like!
This has produced some very interesting results so far. With careful
adjustment of the K5, it is possible to access many of the possible
reality states of any given ham. We are even discussing establishing an
operating achievement award for working the same ham in 100 different
parallel reality planes. (Contacting yourself in an alternative reality
plane does not count.) Further evolution of the quantum CPU's firmware
will be necessary before results such as this can be reliably achieved,
but the possibilities are quite intriguing. Already I find myself
working instances of other hams who live in countries that used to exist
here, or that might exist here, or that will never exist here. Makes
DXCC take on a whole new... er, dimension! So to speak. It's all
somewhere... out there... (I think...)
Anyway, you get the idea. I can't tell y'all any more about it, because
if I do, it will all change anyway, so what's the point? Needless to
say, it's really very challenging!
So back to my Beta testing... Let's see, what was it I was Beta-testing,
then?... I don't seem to see anything here... can't remember...
