Sluething, I like that word. You are right, that is a fabric of our common thread. This hobby requires investigative skills and being adept at navigating the internet as well as the interior of your own computer. With the advent of digital communications and linking our radios with computers, we're all basic software engineer novices, as well. You have to be a good researcher, analyst, and technician to maintain this hobby of ours. You're right, radioman2001, that's the fun of it! You learn something new almost everyday, if you keep up with it.
