Hi Craig, and others,

I'm sorry Clint, but this is the way I see it:
If you can't hear the downlink, stop calling cq because you won't hear

After doing a little research I think Eric is more than qualified to know
what Amateur Radio is all about and how the Ham Spirit has changed. After
working HF for over 20 years he is well aware. He has a very impressive
