Extremely low bandwidth. In this media-driven world, a picture is worth a thousand million words. One picture can foment a war, or end one. There is a place for low-bandwidth communications, but CW and Morse and PSK31 are never going to be able to send pictures.
We have a winner ladies and gentlemen!
Never, never, never say anything around a cell that you wouldn't want someone else to hear. Ever.
Tech from the 60's could key in on CW, much less what they can do today. I'd only use CW if I didn't worry about being listened too.

They are TRAITORS to the heritage of this nation. Those "elites" in both Parties. They had best tread lightly now, the U.S. Eagle has awakened from her slumber and does not like what she sees. The Dems are controlled by the Commies and the elitist Pubbies are largely "blind" Globalists. Screw them both.
Too few good OP’s.
Too slow, but reliable.
Yep.
Mark.
Que bono?
The muzzies.
Who loses?
Everyone else on earth.
You’re right - the point is the destruction of Israel and the United States.

Ultimately, the islamists are going to lose out to the modern world. Their fundamentalist islam philosophy can only compete where they can enforce it by violence. It isn’t strong enough to stand on its own.
Free communication ultimately means the free flow of ideas. That ultimately means islamofascism will lose out, just as communism has lost out.
Heh. Your post brought to mind HST’s ‘mojo wire’ ...
Communism has lost out? Who knew? China is doing well, and communism also has more than a toehold in the greatest nation ever known to mankind, to wit: the U.S.. Sure, the Soviets crashed and burned, but they are back with the new, improved version that incorporates nascent capitalism as a feeder line. They gave the people jeans, cell phones, DVD players and pizza so they’d chill and let the old guard continue on as they did before. Look at their attitude toward the West. Look at their elections. Nothing has changed in 80 years. The same leaders rule until they drop dead. NK doesn’t practice true communism at all - what they have is beyond that.
As for Islam, muzzie membership is growing. Christianity is shrinking, particularly in the West. The West foolishly subjects itself to the economic and physical brutalities of that culture.
I really don’t know what you’re talking about, unless you’re just trying to make yourself feel better.
IMHO, we are in some seriously deep shit on all fronts - economic, cultural, political, you name it.
This is a really interesting technology to me... For the purpose of hooking up hillbillies to the wire. A low cost line-of-sight operation like this, that could propagate a network to a bunch of families, till one got to a house with a dsl connection would be a really cool thing... If a guy could use a pci device rather than USB, it would eliminate a bunch of layers... I wonder if a router could be used in the same fashion....
kinda like a linear amplifier without burning up everything in it's immediate path...
The distance record for WiFi using directional antennas is 237+ miles, last I looked, by a team in South America. I think the Swedes bested that record, but I recall they used an amplifier and they bounced their signals off a balloon.
The parties in the middle east haven’t discovered anything new. Long-range UHF propagation is stuff that US & UK radio amateurs have known about for decades. The #1 thing that you need is a very good antenna, and the more directional the better. You need low-noise input amplifiers at the receiving end and you need to get the antennas aimed properly.
I won’t bore you with the records set by hams using the moon as a signal reflector. Let’s just say that with some proper antenna design and a 50+ watt amplifier, you could bounce WiFi signals off the moon to someone clear on the other side of the earth. The higher level protocols might go nuts with the delay on packet retransmissions, but the radio part of the issue would be entirely feasible.
You think so?
How many guys in the western world are sick and tired of listening to the daily screed and bilge wash from feminists?
And how many of them one day might wake up and say “Hmmm. All I have to do is bang my head on the ground five times a day, and I will never again have to listen to another peep out of any woman... is banging my head on the carpet five times a day better or worse than listening to all her crap, day after day?”
The people who ultimately had better worry about salafism aren’t men. It is western women. Men come out with a pretty sweet deal in an Islamist society.
