Re: Anuino and uBitx in the news
Dying hobby? Never! How do you send a CQ on a cell phone and make a friend or at least a contact? Can you build your own cell phone or even a Windows or Apple computer at home with parts any more? Not without being a real NERD (nothing wrong with that..... NERDs are welcome in this hobby.

The gray hairs are from the OTHER stresses in life. A few minutes in the shack or an hour..... brings a big smile to my face and heart..... and I then sleep like a baby. That really irritates my XYL of 45 years (who no longer enjoys her hobbies.... sad). We just need to get these curious kids into our shacks and let them see the fun stuff we do (I hope you are doing INTERESTING stuff in your shack..... not just sitting there talking on the local net). Ever been to a maker faire or a robotics competition and seen the smiles on the kids faces....... reminds me of the days when I and my two buddies got our Novice tickets..... well, we can do the same thing with Arduinos and other chip computers..... just have them look on Bangood or 3rd Planet Solar for interesting things. My grandson loves to see Papa because I always bring something for us to build and he is only 11. Just my $.02 worth. Dave K8WPE since 1960. David J. Wilcox K8WPE’s iPad
