If ham radio operators can't handle communicating remotely, we have a problem.

There is nothing preventing a group of people from getting together to connect to the zoom meeting from a single location. That would create an ideal Hybrid situation to allow for those who need extended neurological enhancements to communicate with those who may be on the road traveling or have family responsibilities that prevent them from spending the extra time traveling. Houston is an hour from Houston, and with 350+ members spread wide and far, Zoom allows any of those members to attend a meeting with an illness or without the extra burden of having to put some pants on to go somewhere. The hybrid option would create a win-win for all.

The researchers note that in-person interaction afford us richer social context and better processing of facial expressions than virtual. Eddie Runner (NU5K) LIFE MEMBER Oh here is another : in-person meetings excel over virtual ones when deepening relationships, handling complex discussions, and fostering team building and brainstorming sessions. They provide the crucial human touch, non-verbal cues, and immediate interaction needed for these aspects of effective communication and collaboration. if you guys wanna fail, I will wait here on the sidelines.. When you are gone, I will arise from your the clubs ashes and MAKE BVARC GREAT AGAIN...!!

It’s not a question of laziness it’s a question of using modern technology to make life balances work.
