Re: [wsjt-devel] Someone released an Auto CQ mod - my 2 cents

[Thomas K. <n4f...@gm...>]

I would like to remind everyone that our beloved hobby is NOT the Internet.
Whether a fully automated station is permitted or not permitted under the
respective country's regulation, removing the operator from control of a
transmission (auto-CQ, etc.) degrades the hobby.

Ask yourself this: Why bother doing the hobby if you are willing to
relinquish control to some program? Do you want a DXCC award so badly that
you are willing to rationalise the thought of using auto-CQ?
