Guest Posted May 20 Report Posted May 20 but...but..."If all else fails..." Isn't ham radio supposed to save the day? You mean to tell me there isnt a bank of Packet TNC's at the ready and an army of orange vests, handy talkies and scooters ready to launch into action so QSO's can be logged on LOTW?? Quote

They still have ARRL (say it without saying double R, more like a pirate) guys at hamfests actually checking QSL Cards - might be more work for them if this keeps up. And after getting WAS and DXCC I kinda soured on paying $$$ for wall hangings. Don't need any endorsements, thanks! Quote
WSCU465 Posted May 24 Report Posted May 24 Guys, it's just a website just like this one. What if the tables were turned? We're all vulnerable without proper security measures. lol Quote

If so, it might be worth renewing just for that bit of "insurance." Especially with HOAs being the way they are. Quote
