UR6EAChecklogSimple LOOP Antenna, 100 Wtts, One radio, several hours. My interest in contesting is dying...with the deepening of the crisis and the collapse of the economy! Spending a lot of money to build a contest position at a time when the Abyss is ahead? No, now - purely for fun, not straining, not competing at 100%, losing consciousness after an overload my mind! BTW: After the active introduction of FT8, I observe in many - a decrease in the skill of receiving CW! Despite the fact that there are Morse runner simulators, etc. Amateurs go more to S&P, in spots, because on the RUN- they start to 'blunt'. But the Control Number must be received by the ears! And here, the torture of the transmitting side begins, 'Slow down, Transmit several times etc.' So we will get that robots will compete, as in FT8, and the participants themselves, apparently, are no longer able to turn the valcoder or decode CW! I am losing interest... CHECKLOG Much more fun to play a computer game! There, at least - we are on an equal footing and not 'with different antennas and power'! Competitions of Skill or Purse? My 18 year old son, who studied CW, however - shows no interest in contesting! 'You old people play Your games! We are young, there is no place among you!' Why FT-8 was allowed on an equal footing in diploma programs, for example, in DXCC mix mode? And immediately the need to learn CW disappeared! What for? 'I will recruit countries for the Prestigious Diploma in FT8!' Thanks for the competition, but the impressions are ambiguous! Many participants, but the fall of the overall level of they! We need Young and Ambitious, as we were, in our time! If Contesting turns into games for old people, it will die with us
