The journey or the destination?

Thus, it is the pursuit of a goal that is more rewarding than the goal itself, and when one project is finished, apart from a short session on the air to evaluate its efficacy, it is on to the next project. (In my case, still keeping a log book although no longer required to do so, I am only half way through my second log book in 45 years of being licensed). Some projects get to fruition quickly, for example my Chinese copy of a Vibroplex, photos of which appeared in the GQRP SPRAT magazine within a very few weeks of starting it, whereas others may go on for years as the goalposts get shifted time and again! ======================== Gareth , What is the purpose of this eternal repeat , repeat ,repeat.
