Several reports indicate that telecoms providers in Iran have begun blocking internet access across several cities in the country as mass protests erupted for the third day in a row.

Among the telecoms company was Hamrahe Aval, the primary Mobile Telecommunication Company of Iran (MTCI or MCI) as social media continues to play a pivotal role in documenting mass protests and subsequent brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters in the country.

“What will the military do?”

You mean the military that is in Syria, Lebanon and down south to support the Shia in Iraq?

How can we help the Iranian people?

The CIA usually helps to topple foreign governments for us, but they are not on Trump’s side.

Shortwave goes directly to my part of Tx along the grayline,

When the Sun is rising in Teheran, the sun is setting here.

Comes in loud and clear on 40 meters

Interesting...what is the band on which you are hearing them?

in 2009, it was so sad and disgusting that the students/protesters were expecting help from USA, and OBAMA did nothing :(

I still have a number of them. Not that active, but still know how and have the equipment and license.

Oh, that's SURE to calm the population and not drive them to hate those in power even more. Brilliant!!

40 meters LOL

That’s the long skip

Basij were real B_tards back in the 2009 demonstrations. They just killed people because they wanted to make an example of them.

well what should Trump do now? He gave a good speech to UN about how Iran is mostly afraid of its own people. But what can or should he do? We need a plan.

I read where the FBI dude Stroke? was talking to his GF Lisa via ham radio because they believed the NSA does not monitor it. So maybe ISIS is also using it without a fear

I'm pretty confident that plans were/are in place already. The military was not ENTIRELY populated with Obama's Perfumed Princelings.

She had a no code tech license. It is for VHF, UHF, microwave and CW only on 80, 40 & 15 meters. And small portion of 10 meter band for CW, RTTY, data and SSB.

So for all practical purposes, the only HF privileges they get are on 10 meters. (very few technician class license holders know morse).

Comes in loud and clear on 40 meters

My favorite bands were 10, 12 and 15 meters. It was always about talking to the Europeans in the morning and the Asians, mostly Japanese, in the afternoon.

Sztroke? I thought it was Was Ohr?

“German for “Ear”

Regardless its all curious

I used to have to have the radio on at night to go to sleep.

I’d set it 9.580 MHz to Radio Australia, because they were on all night.

If the only communication allowed within Iran is that which is government controlled, and the only story shared outside of that dictatorship is that which is government controlled, then the only story that will be told is what the MSM and the Iranian government wants told.

Remember it is only now that we have discovered how many Chinese were killed during and following Tienanmen Square Massacre.

How many Iranians died or were imprisoned in 20009?

The Iranian government cut off access to twitter and the Internet and once no communication with the outside world ceased, they were able to suppress the protests.

In 2010 it was announced that more than 12 million Iranians have been organized into the paramilitary Bassij, Maybe this time the protesters have figured out to knock the demons off their motorcycles.
