Proposed question for 9 Dec NARC Net.
Note this was sent to support in the past:

HS4.0 is too complex for the users without a HAM license.

It is like those flight simulators that you can only use when you are almost a real pilot :) Luckily in those simulators you can set the level of realism lower , so you don't crash all the time.

In HS4.0 the setting for realism is ultra realistic and fixed and because of that there are some negative consequences:

1. It excludes people. To be able to use it you should have at least a HAM license because the antenna and propagation theory is above most regular (non-Ham licensed) Hamsphere users . It's quite complex
2. The realistic propagation setting means that I cannot make connections if I want to, because of bad propagation. I don't see the fun in that.
3. It is expensive. To have a real good set in which you are equal to other HS4.0 user you need to spend quite some money.
4. Users feel intimidated by the cost in time and money needed to be able to understand and use HS4.0 properly.
If there would be settings in HS4.0 for lower realism it would take out the fun for the real die-hards.

Maybe we can share some thoughts about this and discuss it ?
