Kookrabber,

Your absolutely correct...that is exactly the essence of this hobby....I could imagine the faces of all the people that saw you lay your transmitter down and walk away...And thats just the way we need to be when we are trying to show people this hobby. That it isnt difficult, all though it has its challenging moments. That its all about fun, and not about having the most expensive equipment or keeping up with what someone with 20+ years is doing. Kuddos to you sir...and thank you for your efforts!
