Blog entry, Wednesday 23rd Sept. 2009.........

morning, waiting for dawn, disturbed night, woken several times by a
rat, its a small local type; "Rata de Techo" or roof rat, type likes
to run around and build nests up in the roof area of your dwelling,
making them hard to deal with... The are very quick & agile, I've
seen them jump thru traps, literally faster than the trap.... Probably
where the Speedy Gonzales concept came from.....

so dog & I trying to catch it.... so far no luck....
And plenty of lost sleep...

Learned yesterday something very interesting;

Was listening to Arni Coro the electronics buff on radio Havana Cuba,
And he was doing a report on using digital on HF Radio, i.e. hooking
a computer to his HF and sending and recieving text... the
interesting part was that it would work at extreme low wattages 5
Watts, down to a Half Watt..... and he was doing it on single
sideband, using a free download program, and a simple interface...
and it worked so well, he could remove the interface, and just use
the radio and computer's speakers and microphones set near each other
and get it to work fine just using audio to key things... Arnie &
friends, (which in his case is every Radio operator on the planet),
have also come up with simple HF Radio gear based around parts
scrounged from the e-waste out of flourescent light bulbs, and for
the RF power amplification side are using electron filiment tubes or
valves out of junk TV's.......

What I see in all this for the Survivalist and/or others, is the
ability to build a back-up system to go around the internet in case
of blockage or failure for what ever reason.

This basically combines HAM radio tech with internet tech. and
potentially very cheaply...

I think personally that it would be better if the radio used a power
transistor out of some common e-waste rather than the electron tubes
to reduce energy consumption, and make a better system for those
running their realities off solar panels etc.

I also suspect gear could be designed to use very narrow band widths,
thus further dividing up the frequency spectrum, and creating alot
more "room" for people using it... narrow band width would also
create a more focused signal, reducing farther the energy
consumption...

HF is unique in the frequency range in that its not necessarily line
of sight, it tends to reflect well off of the upper atmosphere and
other things... It also travels well as a ground wave...

what this all means to me, is that its also potentially possible to
build a completely wireless web or internet.... the technologies are
all known and in existence, just not linked yet... there is HF
internet, but linked thru shore stations as a service for Mariners
etc. but what I am suggesting, is the possibility of a free
internet thats totally wireless, and not dependent on scads of
complicated infrasructure that can be shut down or fail.
if true it would also create an acccess or portal into a web for
people with Opressive Governments, like China which censors it's
people's web access, or the US where the web is used by the police
state to spy on the people and gather data about their private lives
in an attempt to classify them for unconstituional forms of
harrassment etc. for not being good enough slaves, or for having
free minds even after a dozen or more years of programming in state
schools, or a lifetime of brainwashing via mainstream "Image of the
Beast" TV.......

its terror tactics, showing who the real terrorists are......

I also wonder about the potentials of using Earth's moon as a
sattelite to bounce signals off of, I remember reading as a kid about
an early US government experiment in the late 40's or early 50's, to
bounce radio signals off the moon.. if all of this could be combined,
it would create the ability to use cheaply built, low power gear, and
perhaps in the moon bounce case a very small tracking dish antenna,
and create a planet wide internet that didnt require anything but the
net of operators at any given time.... i.e. a more bullet proof form
of web for common man's usage....

And if the gear could all be built out of common
E-wastes it would be unstoppable by Beast Governments.....

Arni's address is; inforhc@enet.cu

his "inglis" is incredibly good, and I presume his Spanish is better
than mine too!
