Agreed.? I operate remotely from the Yukon as VY1AAA a lot... when on FT8, it generates Big pileups.? Those people who understand how to use split in FT8 get through faster.? Technique is still important.
I¡¯m excited to try FT8 on the uBitX (which arrives Friday) from the home QTH in NH. ?10w + FT8 has provided many DXCC in short order.

Thanks Gerry.? Interestingly enough I did some searching on the topic of operating FT8 in split mode.? Turns out it is a hotly contested topic in certain circles with very strong opinions on both sides.? I think it is time for me to shift from theoretical to practical and leave the details to the guy with the medal from Sweden.
