remember: if the government shuts down until next month, that includes the FCC.

Power up your pirate TV stations, no one will be enforcing the radio spectrum! I'll be blasting analog NTSC TV with as many watts as I can throw at it. Check out Channel 21 in the SF area, for all the bad sci-fi laserdiscs you can eat.

Stay away from upper UHF. That has been reassigned to marine rescue channels, and the coast guard will still be working if there's a government shutdown.

if you don't misuse the radio spectrum when you can, Guglielmo Marconi died for nothing!

@foone You know about Marconi but didn’t know this?

@arcana I only knew him from "did some important work in radio", not his politics.

@foone but if you do PacketRadio, he died for your SYNs.
