  It truly takes skill to operate voice properly, no joke.
  At my club, lots want to operate 3-5 sunday afternoon, get angry if they 
arrive and there is no station for them to operate.  (cherry picking)
  The CW lovers design, build, initial new and different antennae, then 
show up at midnight and operate for two hours set in the bugs for 
two hours, operate for two hours etc. (and operate the voice stations 
on CW when we run out of voice operators)  Helps!
 If it were not for the 20 CW operators there would 3 or 4 voice guys 
standing around a box of dipoles+coax trying to figure it all out, not 
erecting a 40 meter Moxon.

      I upgraded to LINUX, the more I use it, the more I love it.
        It doesn't do everything for you, you must program it.
