Buzz Out Loud 903: Moons over my HAM radio

While we inadvertently promote a chain restaurant's free luncheon, we also talk a lot about space. Which annoys Brian Cooley to no end.

WIA: Members and Guests Descend on Broken Hill

Iran Speedboat Conflict Falsely Attributed to Ham Radio

The recent conflict between speedboats in Iran and an American warship is being blamed on a false transmission from elsewhere. The perpetrator is being labeled as a Radio Ham in this news story. Technocrat.net would like to point out that anyone with a boat is likely to have the sort of radio involved, and many more exist on shore.
