Also, I dunno about the FTL (faster than light) antenna design. That
implies that the acknowledgements will arrive before the

predictive T/R switch will help (one that switches before one intends
to switch it).


The cool thing is that you'll get the QSL card before you have the QSO.
If no QSL comes, don't bother with the QSO.


But, if you *do* get the QSL card, you *must* make the QSO. No
excuses allowed. If you don't, you rupture the space-time continuum,
cause the entire Universe to end, and are cited by the Causality
Police and must pay a stiff fine.
