Actually Mal...

Amateur radio was never created to allow just communication.  The international definition goes something like this:

"Amateur radio service" means a radio communication service in which radio apparatus
is used for the purpose of self-training, intercommunication or technical investigation by
individuals who are interested in radio technique solely with a personal aim and without
pecuniary interest.


Seems all of the people here fit into this definition.

In the beginning when one got a transmit licence the first consideration was to communicate with an other radio amateur and get a report.
Now the procedure seems to be put a BEACON on air and request a report via EMAIL, telephone or mobile phone.
Do not study or listen on the band as a SWL would do but just plonk the beacon anywhere and churn out endless repetive bandslip callsign and QTH info and cause the maximum QRM to those engaged in QSO mode. You cannot ask the station to QSY because the Beacons are unattended.
Appliance Operator assistants I presume.
