 Well, I am currently on a simplex EchoLink node with an HT.  The majority of 
the stations on the other end are coming into their local repeaters with their 
radios.

 How the single gets to the other end is of no concern to me.

I try to use RF whenever possible, however being able to keep in touch with 
people on the radio with a PC or phone client is sometimes necessary, and 
doesn't take away from anything.
