It is illegal to hide messages in ham frequencies by the use of encryption. There may be some loopholes for incidental encryption used for authentication or other purposes. But as other commenters point out, there is no way to detect encryption that is inserted into plaintext cover messages. For example each particular spoken word could be selected to encode a bit or two of encrypted data. The spoken words might sound a bit strange but can’t be proven to be cover for encrypted messages.
Okay...they practice “fox hunting” with their yagi antennas.
Good to know, thanks. If you have another moment to educate me, who is the law enforcemnt monitoring such things? I would assume the FCC, and my guess of their forms of punishment are most likely just a suspension of your ham license? Thanks again
What you’re describing sounds a lot like Podesta’s emails discussing “pizza”...
