Re: LF: Are the new VE stations able to qso with other amature stations ??

Pete,

   I don't know anything about "Pirates" on 500kHz. or even why you would raise the issue.

I have valid FCC issued Experimental licenses for 500 (also 137 and 160-190kHz).
These are classified as Experimental not "Commercial"

Hi LF Group

 

Putting Quantum Mechanics aside for a mo. I know this is bit academic since my chance of working the Americas on 500 is pretty remote but are these stations Amateurs or not Amateurs? Are they actually Pirating but using a commercial call?

 

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.

SO.... 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 .....

Thanks  !
