The whole setup looks decidedly dodgy to me. If they are Pirates how would it affect my license if the opportunity arose for me to work one and I did? The only place I know where I am licensed work a non Amateur station is on 5megs and that can only be a UK Mill station.   It's a question of how much you value your license I suppose.   73 petefmt --- On Fri, 13/11/09, Graham <[email protected]> wrote: From: Graham <[email protected]> Subject: Re: LF: Are the new VE stations able to qso with other amature stations ??

Matter and antimatter cannot coexist at close range for more than a small fraction of a second because they collide with and annihilate each other, releasing large quantities of energy in the form of gamma rays Got it  now .. gamma rays are electromagnetic ..hence radio waves are produced .. which may suffer  (constructive interference) or (destructive interference) resulting in large variations in amplitude at the point of observation .....
