The shielding effect of the blowout signal of European radio stations on African radio stations lasted for a long time, almost until the end of the next day, and at that time, there were very few African radio stations left, except for some very powerful and very well-equipped hams, only a few lucky participating hams captured a few African countries, and most of them returned in vain.

Many experienced hams don't have much hope for the coefficient score of African countries at all, and after a few lucky encounters and find that it doesn't work, they simply spend their energy on acquiring the basic score. After all, it is still relatively easy to obtain a basic score, and a dozen basic scores can also be equivalent to a coefficient score, which is a little more reliable.

In the midst of the intense competition, two days passed in a blink of an eye.

In these two days, the vast majority of people still went out early and returned late as usual, and they did not know that during these two days, a huge amount of radio waves had appeared around them, and they did not know that the kid who stayed at home every day around them might have communicated with people from dozens or hundreds of countries around the world during these two days.

It's a global feast that can only be enjoyed by hams, and that's where the allure of radio waves comes in.

During these two days, the actual contestants used up most of their energy, and many of them fell asleep on the floor in front of the radio station immediately after the competition, and as for the results, let's wait until they wake up.

Lin Hong needed to go to school on Monday, so he stopped playing before eight o'clock. From Saturday to Sunday, a total of 48 hours, he actually competed about two-thirds of the time, and there was some delay due to eating and resting in between.

Lin Hong only has the mentality of trying out the competition, and he doesn't necessarily have to get a good result. He prepares well and takes it seriously during the game, which is a basic respect for the game. As for the final result, we will have to wait at least a month later.

He still has one more thing to do, which is to sort out the previous record of the competition and mail it to the organizer, CQ magazine in the United States. According to oh3lus, it would be better to be able to use a computer to submit an electronic file of the station's recordings, through a method called "networking".

However, this method is obviously unrealistic for Lin Hong, he has never even seen a computer, let alone any "network". At this time, Lin Hong still only had a vague concept of computers, as for what "network" was, he understood it like this: computers are equivalent to telephones, and many "telephones" are connected to form a "network". In the mouth of oh3lus, "networking" is a very powerful thing that can do a lot of exciting things, even more so than radio.

Lin Hong was unable to submit electronic records, so he had to use the paper documents used by his predecessors to submit them, and mail them by international mail, of course, at a large cost of postage.

After breakfast, Lin Hong went to school with Sun Wu.

On Saturday the day before yesterday, Sun Wu went to Tanglin City, and stayed at Xiaopang's house for one night, and did not come back until yesterday afternoon.

"Hongzi, it's a pity that you didn't go this time." Sun Wu shook his head very regretfully, "I'm going to Chubby's house, damn it, that kid is so happy, the room is full of all kinds of toys, there are several submachine guns, and such a big Transformers model...... Sun Wu made a gesture with both hands.

From childhood to adulthood, his toys are dancing knives and sticks, and Lin Hong's toys are all kinds of electronic components. Compared with Pan Panlai, it is simply a heaven and an earth, and there is no comparison at all.

However, Lin Hong, who has been very precocious since he was a child, is not interested in these toys at all. It is no exaggeration to say that such a thing, as long as the conditions allow, he himself can make a better one. In his opinion, toys need to be made by hand to be interesting. Just as he used to make ore radio, and then as he now plays amateur radio.

He had a plan in his mind that when conditions permitted, he would build his own computer to play with.

Sun Wu saw that Lin Hong was indifferent, and he had expected it, so he continued: "Let me tell you, in addition to those toys, Xiaopang also has a game console at home, such a small box, you can play games directly on the TV, the games inside are very interesting, I played this for a day at his house yesterday." ”

"Oh?" Lin Hong suddenly became interested, "You tell me in detail, what is the appearance?" ”

"Probably... Probably a little smaller than the basin, boxy, next to two palm-sized rectangular handles, can operate the game, by the way, because its color is mainly composed of white and red, Chubby called it a red and white machine. Sun Wu slapped his face and remembered the name of the game console.

"Red and white machine?" Lin Hong's face showed a look of loss, he originally thought it was a computer.

He was always thinking about the computer in his heart, and he had imagined the composition and shape of the computer countless times in his mind.

"Yes, it's a Japanese-made home game console that can be connected to a TV and is not very large. When will I find a way to get one to play with...... It's just that the price is a little more expensive. However, Xiaopang said that it seems that there are also such game consoles in China, and the price is much cheaper. Sun Wu's eyes showed a look of yearning, as if he had seen such a game console placed in his home.

"Did you go to his brother-in-law's room?" Lin Hong still asked a little reluctantly.

"His brother-in-law?" Sun Wu shook his head, "His brother-in-law doesn't live with them, it seems that he is rented outside." I haven't seen him in those two days. ”

After speaking, Sun Wu began to tell Lin Hong in detail about the games he played in the red and white machine, Lin Hong no longer thought about the computer, and listened carefully to Sun Wu's description. He also had a vague impression that the red and white machine should be a lite version of the arcade machine, replacing the monitor with a TV, and then integrating the motherboard or something into a small box. The joystick is replaced with a handle.

Listening to Sun Wu's explanation, Lin Hong sincerely admired those who invented game consoles and games, and they could make such magical things through circuits, which didn't seem to exist in nature, and were completely created out of nothing.

It seems that this is also a special type of computer. Lin Hong thought so.

His yearning for computers couldn't help but become more urgent.
