I strongly agree, Andy. When folks say that it's the computer that makes the QSO, I observe that 1) I know no one who can read RTTY without some form of decoder, and 2) the computer did not put up my antennas, build my station, learn propagation, learn electronics, physics, transmission lines, and so on.
