Sometimes, we do things just because we want to do them. ?I mentioned in another group something about computer controlldr HF rigs to be kind neat. ?A crusty guy came back: "I LIKE KNOBS" in caps. So, the VFO with the numerical and dial display plus a big know would be something Crusty Man would like. Or not. ?The tools we have to work with today can do a lot. When "useless projects" are completed, many skills are learn which might be utilized in more substantial, usable projects.
ObGroup: Had a "Space Pen". Worked well. ?Never had much need to write in upside down in outer space but... I had a Space Pen. I lost it somewhere. I was 12 years old. Thing happen.
