   Yet another completely pointless activity along with DXing, contesting,   
   IOTA, SOTA and Wabber-Jabber, all of which are attempts to   
   justify the needless possession of an amateur licence and associated   
   equipment but have nothing whatsoever to do with the   
   technical basis of amateur radio.
