    Don’t discount 10m voice or digital modes. You can absolutely work the world with minimal equipment and power on 10m, especially when the sunspots are active.

    “Vote with your fingers, space stuff however you want.” I believe this is why I see an increasing lack of punctuation or capitalization in online discourse.
