Like I said when the big BANG comes the Appliance operator and his data
gadgets will be rendered useless, whereas a Radio Amateur with his 2 valved
RX/TX, a morse key, a piece of wire for antenna and a pedal powered power
source will communicate on.
We all managed to commumicate and navigate this past 100 years without these
gadgets, unfortunately today the majority seem to be totally dependant on
computers and associated data devices. These gadgets are handy but make a
person LAZY and forgetful about how to write and operate CW as a tool to
communicate.

Perhaps we should encourage a Loran jamming excercise to prove that it
isn't the un-jammable marvel that its cracked up to be?

Hmmm... I can only see an electricity substation at that exact
location...the source will probably on Henley's Down or somewhere similar.
It'll mess-up any GPS-disciplined beacons (LF or Microwave)for a few
hours!
