[Optimum height for such a weapon would be 312 miles above Kansas city.

The satellite NK launched on Feb 6 of this year is currently at about 311.6 miles altitude in orbit.]

Holy cow

Oh, since they’re resurrecting Cheyenne Mountain, I take it.

NORD is typically referred to as “Crystal Palace” no matter where they are physically. I believe that NORAD has moved most of it’s operations back inside the mountain. I have heard NORAD on open channels a couple of times once in the early 80’s they were scolding a couple of chatty pilots in Kalifornia near Fort Hunter Liggett.

Of course the Mountain continues to be the home of Stargate Command. ;-)

Written confirmation of your radio contact. Many hams use digital logbooks but some use a postcard like the one I posted.
