[Lowfer] Publicity and new blood

[Peter Barick]

Hey, Hi Eric, Eddy, Gang...

Well I've heard similar negativism before, but agree w/ Eric's take on the LF scene. A lack of regular CW is not the problem, only the symptom of too few ops. for two ways. From times past CW was done on LF by a few, who seemed to have moved on. But the new modes, those digital, have allowed "comms." over greater distances than ever before -- and it doesn't take much effort to set up a pc for such, but will require a stable, selective rx and fair ant. sys.

Question: Those who don't like the current LF practices, have they tried them? If problems help IS available for a shout.

Cheers All - Peter

Hi, Eddy,
I appreciate your comments.  Please don't take my reply the wrong way, like you said, just one opinion here, but I could not disagree with you more.  First, I don't think anyone cares if someone is "put off" by modes like Wolf or QRSS.  As far as what attracted some of us to this hobby, it was for me in fact those very modes.
