Question of the day - #HamRadio #AmateurRadio

What's the most surprising thing you've ever heard on the air?

@sergio_101 Many rigs don't mute the mic audio when sending digital modes eg JT65, FT8. I have heard 15 second snips of a full-on domestic blue between a ham & his XYL over top of his digital data.

@weezmgk

yeah! and sometimes they pipe their system sounds.. so you hear bings and bongs and sometimes music or videos..

@sergio_101 Some folks haven't worked out you need 2 sound cards to avoid stuff like that
