To me, FM is boring, but hidden in all that noise and hissing on HF are the reasons I love ham radio. Reasons like John, 9M2GV, an expat Brit running a rubber plantation overlooking the Mallacca Straits. Reasons like Sparky, W3UBM/MM making the Pacific runs on the rusty old SS Manderson Victory. Reasons like working K0IR (as VK0IR) on three modes and five bands from Heard Island, almost at the antipode on the low side of the freckles-del-Sol. In other words, picking out an almost ghostly signal from the molecular noise of the universe and finding a friend, a kindred soul playing exhuberantly in the ether. FM sucks for all the silence. I like that! Charles Brabham, N5PVL |
