I tried echolink, and it just wasn't the same. I do think it is a great way for some hams to stay on the air. Even with El you still get on the air via someone's station, and the technology is interesting. My few hf contacts have all been in excess of 700 miles from my QTH. no Internet involved, and I only used the ts440 and a wire dipole antenna so I didn't even need household electricity, just a charged battery.
