Andy,

The value for the speed of light must be raised.
Yes, because increasing the speed ten times would
- let us get rid the annoying time delay in EME QSO's
- reduce the radioactive waste volume in nuclear power plants by 99%
No, because increasing the speed of light to 3x10exp10 m/s would
- increase the wavelength at any given frequency by a factor 100 (and thus we would need 100 times larger antennas)
Of course this last can be compensated by your other suggestion to lower the impedance of free space.
