“Do you know anything about radio?

RF Transmitters can be quickly identified in a military conflict. Shelling invitation.”

Yes I do know a bit about it, I am into radio. And one time Uncle Jimmy told me that on his third tour in Nam he would take his crew out and not contact anyone unless it was absolutely necessary. Because if you give away your location or called in for fire support you could get shelled by BOTH sides.

So he said short transmissions and move quick. But they still had to communicate now and then for resupply and to give reconnaissance updates.

RDF is quick now.

I’ve seen evidence that the RF spectrum is recorded form multiple points and that triangulation is possible after the fact.

Sobering thought. Unless the good guys are in control.

Only the uninformed think that the Ham Ops are right wing red necks. Simply an illusion created by media types and bureaucraps trying to expand their authority.

I wished I could say the same for some of the Alphabet Agencies.
