I think it's people are so lazy and think echolink is even 1/4 as good so 
they don't go to the work to set up stuff on HF

Hi Phil.

And why should we be able to chew away at the ozone layer, change the
chemical composition of the atmosphere with greenhouse gases and still
think that it won't have any effect on how radio signals travel through
it?  I'm being serious, now.

Anyway, I thought the flat bands were my lousy antennas!  Being that I have
a city lot, the antennas aren't very high or long.  A G5RV was the biggest
antenna I could stuff in the lot, and I had to bend it at that to make it 
fit.

My suspicious mind wonders if the governments and the HF broadcasters know
that things are declining, and that it is an expensive medium to operate in
and that's why so many of them are pulling the plug on HF.
