@dj3ei @darc

Unfortunately, this is the harsh reality of the second quarter of the 21st century. The "ham radio operators case" has been covered by tons of independent Belarusian media outlets, and there's even a Reddit thread about it

@darc : Do you have persecution of Belarus #hamRadio operators 🧵 on your radar? Any idea how to find out whether this is true or a hoax? If this is real, how can we help? Will an outcry in liberal Western (= "enemy") media like Fediverse be perceived helpful or make matters worse? Maybe we should ask amnesty international, they have experience with such matters? Or maybe the Russian IARU member society can help?

Belarus imprisoning amateur radio operators is the dumbest thing.

The only secrets we tell anyone are, “I am getting too much noise on my new antenna” or “I need to buy a new radio for that” or “say again your last”.

International messages send secret codes such as “5&9 with only 5 watts!” (which means the signal was free of noise).

Completely mad.

"But logic does not exist in a state ruled by technical savages. To them, the fact that you can solder an antenna, track a weather satellite, or understand the physics of wave propagation makes you an existential threat", writes @lab66

Any journalists out there? This is happening in Belarus and needs to be amplified.

🚨 MAYDAY from Belarus 🚨

I am EU1AEY, and this is an SOS to the global amateur radio community. My heart is breaking. Today, in Belarus, a harmless technical hobby is being treated as high treason.

Help me amplify this signal before our keys are silenced forever. Show this to a journalist, relay it to your national radio associations, and don’t let this intellectual genocide happen in total silence.
