Hello Earth Radio enthusiasts,
I see my various tag lines caught your attention! (;->)
UH OH, I hate to think what you'll do with this one...
On the serious (?) side, Ian, brush up on your Ham terms, a "lid" is a
bad operator. On the other side of the coin, a VXA is a Very Xcellent
Amateur. (When I hear the shot I duck!)
The US Navy used an SLF radio system to send messages to submerged
submarines in extremely slow CW (to get enough cycles per character for
proper readability) using a high power transmitter and buried cable
several miles long located in the state of Michigan. It took a very long
time to send even a short message because of the slow character speed,
but was effective on a global scale, because the waves actually travel
through the Earth at such low frequencies. I don't know if the system is
still in use or not, but an episode of The X Files was written around it.
Perhaps Scully and Muldur started the panic over RF radiation hazards?
The truth is NOT out there, but things are looking up and no, I do NOT
want to believe. (;->)
