[TVARC] Humiliation

[George Briggs]

So I have been trying out this new FT8 thingy, letting my computer talk to other computers
via ham radio.  Today a familiar call sign popped up sending CQ:  KM4ISN, our very own
club president.  I figured how cool it was going to be when my computer worked his computer.
So we answered his CQ and waited, with baited breath, for the next 15 seconds to see his
reply.  WHAT???  That’s not MY call sign.  He answered someone else!  How embarrassing!
No more 20W for me.  I’m firing up the amplifier next time.

73,
George K2DM
