Thank you everyone. I... If I had not had the pleasure of
meeting you, I'm Jonathan Tomek. Most people call me Sakebomb because that's
just been the fun handle that I've had for the past, I don't know what? 20 years? Which is just
crazy in itself. So, Michael asked me to speak on something anything other than
what anybody else is presenting. So I have had an interest in ham radio for a
few years and I'm gonna try to do a few things for you. If I'm not sure how many
hams there are in this room? But hopefully I can inspire you to become a
ham. If not, encourage you to do actually something really good with you
having your license. So, other than finding something more fun
to speak into, I decided that, hey bring it out there and learn as much as I can
within the short amount of time. Which was basically a month he gave me, and said hey,
go speak, alright. So, I just got a new call sign which is K4RUK.
Kilo, four, Romeo, uniform, kilo. You guys should probably try to learn that fun
alphabet. If you have not already learned that. As it'll really help you, especially
when you speak to the foreign language speakers overseas. Because it is
extremely hard. It's kind of like saying N as in Nancy doesn't really transition
well everywhere. But a, it's yeah. It's just good to know. So, I a, I've cornered the market on the
whole sake bomb name. Which is pretty fantastic. Except for reddit sadly. I have
a friend there that just won't hook me up at all, but anyway. If you've ever met
me before, it's probably because I have seen you down in ThoughtCon in Chicago. I'm one of
the founders down there and I've been doing that for the past
ten years. And I do quite a lot of things there with whether it's registration, CTF
stuff, hanging out with you guys, probably being... I can't swear on TV I think these are being
recorded right? So, being a jerk with a lot of you guys, trying to encourage you to
learn a lot of different things. And it, my whole primary objective is just to
get everybody in here inspired. I want everybody to become a better Hacker..
That's effectively what it is and I'm here to see that threaded throughout
some of this talk. So, just quick question for everyone in here. Who in
here's a ham? I just want to see. So there are a couple, so good. I actually do have
some people, so I don't have to talk just on the basics. All right. So, to begin. Why
are you here? I actually really don't know why you're here but I'm guessing it
is with ham radio and it excites you but more importantly that there really is
nothing for you to do right now I don't really know why you're here I would not
be here I usually don't even go to clocks myself especially 8:00 yeah but
great but I think this is probably one of the biggest the biggest things here
is hams argh especially hackers are very we're not
really community driven as much as we possibly could be and it's kind of funny
because there's people in ham radio like all the owners all the people that have
been doing it for a long time which is a much older crew and if the hackers over
here but that fine sliver down the middle is even smaller than you could
imagine and I do have a couple places that I can help you guys get into to get
more involved because we're of all the different hacker groups I think we are
probably the most encouraging of everyone that wants to help and will not
shame you for not knowing things I mean that's that's most of the hacker
community for sure but absolutely the Hamm community just because it's the
most the biggest a movie so again I'm here I want to inspire you
and give you some something to be passionate about because that is the
biggest thing that I've noticed just throughout my entire time of whether
it's presenting or being out in the real world with my normal job that you very
rarely find somebody that's so passionate about doing any hobby and if
I could just give you this much of it I will feel like I got my job done and
that's so just for the for those that are not hands in here and I'll try to
ramp up slowly by the end for those that are hands some of the reasons that I
personally am at Hamm is I this weird survivalist I I'm burying and I've had
to go through several X Fund experiences and episodes where having a radio and
knowing how to use a radio is very very useful but also living in DC we've had
some major instances where if you did not have a radio skill you probably were
in the heavy a very very scary time so we had other than 911 which I'm sure
many of you all know about they cut all the cellphones and nobody was even
allowed to communicate out and not too long ago actually I think it was almost
seven years ago we had an earthquake in DC which you wouldn't think it was like
a 3.2 whatever and it's like nothing ecstatic some of the stuff that you just
be like oh whatever but apparently it caused so much so much of a problem that
some ability was crumbled it even affected the Washington Memorial that
they there were so many emergencies but all the cell phones including some of
the internet was cut out for a good day nobody communicated was actually crazy
pandemonium especially in DC of all places that you couldn't like I think
this is this the one city you do not want to ever get
stuck in at birth because people are so on edge it's East Coast it's like
hypertension traffic like jams whatever but my god did having a radio like save
the day for like I felt like this the biggest thing lifted because I was
talking my neighbors about it they were like I couldn't get hold my kids didn't
even know they where they were at school this schools closed all that everything
so if that's enough to get you going please do it it's really really cool to
do but even bigger than that other than my survival stuff cuz I could go to rant
on that for an hour is just knowing how to use and apply a
lot of the things that you learn from ham in the IOT realm this is by far the
biggest frontier right now this is where the Wild West is of the internet that
mean we have so many new things coming out that most people just haven't even
touched yet so this is where I would really want to encourage you to start
touching just learn some of the fundamentals keep your license so that
you know how to transmit just so you can do things legally and then it'll to
start making a lot more sense about all these different fun things and
techniques it's like it's like grabbing at low-hanging fruit you're like oh my
god I can I can do that and then tap talk and that people think I'm like a
genius like that's wait it is it's just another thing for you to think about but
this this will really just bring this whole bring you all together because we
in this like that niche little can hacker community I was talking about
everybody always wants to talk about all these fun little projects they've been
working on and I've been realizing outside and then even bubble bit
everyone here rarely even see some of those fun little projects they talk
about just because nobody goes up and presents on it I mean this is another
thing I did encourage you you can present yourself because it's going to
make you want to learn something and if you're full of oh my god do I know
enough like I'm the one speaking I think I have to answer all the questions in
the room or is that bad kind of silly up there
but the thing is it causes you to have to learn a lot of the answers of the
questions that even yourself need to have and that group doesn't even present
so I would love for you guys to even do like get involved in it it'll really
bring us all together so the big things with getting really really involved just
pick a simple project this is where I'm like I'm trying to inspire you I have
got a couple of them listed right after this but with that project it's gonna
give you enough of something that you've always wanted to do it's whether it's
working with some of the most basic technologies I mean you need to have
something that's going to drive you forward and this has been every which
way in just your typical hacker lifestyle anyway man I don't know what
got you into being here but something made you passionate to say hey I'm gonna
go to cypher can't be here today because there's something I want to learn that's
how you get better at everything so just find a simple project if you don't have
one or you just even a little bit interested I'll be happy to start you
CTS are probably the best way to do that so it helps you start really really
small and work your way up and then say you know what I really just want to work
on this project and it'll really really a cancer set your novel set eating your
technicians license is also one of the easiest things you possibly do I mean
you need a 73% category to get this exam I mean you guys can study for an hour
because I'm sure everybody here's really intelligent you have to get 26 questions
out of 35 just to get this license it is super super easy and that's your first
step I mean once you get that I mean you can start playing and talking on the
radio we believe that's any band that is it's a restricted band for you but if
you do once outside of just listening to like the
police scanners go go hey the stuff is will do cool I can hear police officer
but it it really opens up your world and that's that first step that actually
gets you like really excited it really gets you going it's kind of like that
feeling you get after you up you watch the cockers you're like damn what the
hell am i doing I'm like wasting my life why am I like just sitting here when I
can totally like be making bag look dead I mean this is this is simple
fundamental steps then get your radium I mean this is people it can be an
extremely expensive hobby yes I totally like if you don't know every hobby that
we have is probably really good so with him you can actually start fairly cheap
with I mean there's a lot of direction to care a lot of the group would be
willing to sell you old gear or you can serve with an SDR you can have some of
these fancy things like this line SDR which can literally intercept cellphones
and do video and play with it it's pretty badass or you can get this like
an RTLS the SDR which is like $10 little Chinese do hit me then you can plug in
and start intercepting and transmitting but it does not it's not perfect don't
get me wrong but nonetheless there's a lot of really cool projects you can do
with it so bathroom like that next step and then finally just getting in this
community and I would love for you to look at the slide itself because in here
I'm not going to there's two discs or groups that are full of lot that sliver
of hackers that are also hands that I was talking about and surprisingly
there's it's a global community like some people are in lots of us but but
all over and they are all willing to really help you everything that you want
to do so with that being said so some of the
things that we've all talked about in the group as well as some of the
projects that I wanted to do or are listed up here and hopefully you guys
will see how it like actually simplest stuff is so working with a satellite
everybody's like how badass is that oh yeah I talk stats all the time yeah like
does that have some cool I mean I think that sounds cool I mean my wife thinks
I'm an absolutely heat but she's my husband smart is it's literally no
different than like talking to some of these some of the repeaters I mean it's
like using a cell phone except with these the repeater towers but you're
just doing with the radio but some of the really really cool things we do with
just working with satellites is you can start downloading a lot of imagery you
can work with a lot of the free ones that are out there
universities launch them there's like CubeSat programs and it's it's a it's a
huge world I mean there there's parts where you can sell they sell time and
you can even download imagery of fun locations and this is kind of a fun fact
that I don't know if you guys know is I guess it's legal but it's pseudo deal
there's groups that will sell you imagery time to take pictures of any
place on the world for very very very low month money and we're talking like I
don't know like ten bucks and there's places that our government doesn't want
you to take pictures up but you kind of have to be able to do that stuff so just
letting you know that that stuff those options are out there if you're really
interested in say I don't know you clear silos or anyway so it's fun stuff to do
and I highly encourage it I include some links on here so you guys can see some
of the programs and how to use like a satellite tracking program really really
basic sadly some things are really really Windows we're lying and I hate to
say that but that's just because the community is involved that way but
virtual machines all the ways totally ok a lot of stuff is also
in space there's a lot of really cool programs that are free you can use but
anyway next this is probably one of the biggest ones that actually gets a lot of
people kind of annoyed in the Hamm community which is digital boats because
is it really radio if you're using it through the internet so this this little
radio is is a lot of fun because you could use it with they they're like
Huygens they're there you just by little by little the other thing and yes I'm
transmitting a little radio wave to this thing that negotiated in it but it lets
you do a lot of these tiny moves that makes the actual audio and the video is
clear but I mean this is the sound the Internet is I mean you can also set up a
big repeater and do this stuff but with traditional hackery that's literally why
it exists so I highly recommend checking it out that's probably one of the
simplest and easiest to use methods other than just the traditional like
single sideband once you start playing with you ham radio that that's the first
thing you probably want to do that is to DMR is one of the bigger ones there's a
D star there's one league which said they might even disappear one day very
soon but who knows the the next is this thing called PSP 31 was a phase shift
and key this is a really really cool method of protocol so hopefully
everybody in here knows what a protocol is like tcp/ip like this is your
standard of how data is going to flow it's actually extremely efficient for
anything because we have the internet we are the ability to have tons of loss
packet loss etc yes a31 allows you to send data but let's say I wanted to send
really short message to you that was just like wow or hello world every bite
that you send you don't want to have too much overhead so I thought was gonna
send an a that need like a 1-bit but then if I would need to send it be you
kind of be following up by her level but you don't you always are dropping a
bunch of the bits so a B would be a 1 0 a C would be a 1 it's like you wouldn't
even actually give me a 1 0 0 1 these always ends in a 1 and always ends it
starts with a 1 so that you're eliminating all that data loss so it's a
pretty cool little uh protocol to learn and it might be one that you should
learn if you next ETF's especially ones that I like to run so check it out next
this one is really really cool and if you have not heard of an ampere net look
into this this is basically free Internet ipv4 space because we're
already going with all of that but is the internet over and there's it's
actually seen in that much different formats but super-slow works for IRC
email X PRIZE Lee does boy I really don't know how because it's really
crappy quality but it doesn't have that it does what I use it for IRC and it's
kind of fun it's kind of like one of those things that I wanted to actually
set up because I want to get the oh crap moments where you're like hey everything
went down can I send out a quick email or something just or a message out and
then have have enough trigger back work of its that's the ones that the Deadman
switch sounds like that was that was fun I don't know why I do those things I
mean I don't do you guys do that stuff maybe now I'm just but anyway ampere met
really really cool and within with an internet that there's really big
communities that use different including here's you have used the big witty like
they'll actually read the firmware completely and start this
massively network like there's a big one up like in the Seattle area there's one
in my Europe and it's literally in my opinion that's actually what true dark
metas or cement or because you don't have to rely anything on the Internet
these are true internet like separate internet communities that all leverage
their own data but it still requires him to do even though the radio signals can
be over Wi-Fi for whatever is it's the amount of power that they need and then
the complete reverse of that is this thing called qrp mode and oh I didn't
even explain with Kiera P stands for but they're in him they have a lot of really
short notations and it's part of what CW is like Morse code whenever you're
sending messages you want to be as fast as possible so you can really like crush
everything down into like three letters and so therapy just means low-power mode
and a lot of really cool things can happen with this this is probably one of
those oh yeah I did that but no I'm I don't think I will ever do this stuff
just visits extremely difficult like the fact that somebody can use a mic robot
to send something Connor to see you've got 1,650 miles like absolutely bonkers
we're talking that is less power than a analog watch uses like think about that
for a second like I don't know how the hell somebody did that but you have to
take like the time you get there like where the Sun is high up there like also
this damn stuff and like people do this stuff but this also includes like moon
shots like shooting up your power up to the moon bouncing off of that a lot of
people do this it's fun little hugging you actually get listed in record books
which hey more power to you but it's it's still something really really cool
just something for you guys to look into that's also where like low row comes
from if you guys ever play with that that's the legal non-han like data is
stuff if you ever won the send like little
power long-range messages or data alright so the things to do with him and
this is where this will get you really going is definitely play the CT apps
like I was saying earlier we have one going on right here super easy get
involved there everybody on that team wants you to learn they're there to help
you and the equipment that they give you if you win is like were thousands upon
thousands it's worth more than like you guys could would ever want to like spend
yourselves but they click this really self but it also teaches a lot of fun
fundamentals that you in gives you more projects that didn't really think about
and like the Fox hunts if you ever want somebody walking around the room they're
like with their laptop it gets a little creepy but hey whatever but that's what
they're doing they're they're trying to find a signal and triangle a signal and
except they're not trying to believe me that's a state line so that's that's
where I yeah he comes into play and hopefully any but if you don't know what
it yeah he is in here that's that one metal little bar that has all those
lines in it that you can direct point-to-point shoot that's gonna give
you the best power for your distance ratio and with that you parable people
and you can triangulate and there are really cool programs out there and and
or right one that could help you triangulate extremely fast if there's a
fast moving object or you really want to translate Excel faster and there's in
the hand world because we are self regulating which is such funny and bad
idea at the same time but hands and hands are traditionally like really good
about being hands like you're not supposed to do that
I know we're all policemen but at the same time we do look the other way but
yet there's really people that are doing like these pirate
radio stations in like California they get finally hundreds of thousands of
dollars they've been doing it for like 15 years and like had not been quite
like what the hell but hey what's that saying it's keeping honest people honest
and hands are like the most honest of people I don't know why but the why I
was going with that is within that self policing group there's volunteers that
do these box hunts for people that are breaking the hand code they're breaking
actual violations doing too much power like you can't go over 1,500 watts which
is a lot anyway that's like they'll give you a headache just to walk back but
people do this stuff that's the old CB radios like nasty stuff but they usually
have groups of people that will be ones and twos and they can triangulate by
using these programs and pinpoint exactly and it's really really quick
that's actually how the GPS tracking your phone works more so than just the
GPS tracker they just use cell phone technology to triangulation so other
than meat and venting on CTF stuff please please check out just you could
probably check out some of those simple problems that they have and be like oh I
did this in 30 seconds or 30 minutes anyway I learned maybe I've captured
about that one dating my next thing there is a number station and I tried
the audio on here so I apologize I wanted to play for you but I could
probably if you want to speak to you and number station and Russian because I
mean why not but there's several more than several famous number station this
is probably one of the coolest like if you are ever into like those science
fiction or like all about figuring out like spies and stuff they have numerous
number stations that still exist and what they are is traditionally a metro
station is just number same you hear over the radio ways like whether it's
or sideband just you hear it and it's just like one seven three and you just
hear this consistently and people think it literally could be anything or it
could just be trolls which I really believe there are still trolls out there
just tuning in for fun I mean especially in Russia I mean what a better way to
like throw up the US meddling had these numerous amounts of numbers that just
get big blasted for years I think also some of the people lifelike died and
like just let it go because they're still the battery backups and for
whatever reason nobody here to take them down but they they still are kind of fun
and people still try to figure out what the hell they're doing and and sometimes
actually figure them out so one of the most popular ones is the the Russian man
and you can still hear that if you if you pick up most radios you can hear it
pretty well at night because of the way the atmosphere works and I will not bore
you until you get your ham license with all my fun ham knowledge about how
atmospheric conditions work sunspots and stuff like that but that's that's gonna
be your most opportune time to hear anything from overseas you can actually
hear Japan like probably about 30 minutes after Sun Goes Down that's
really cool we can't talk to him he asked which
number stations had they figured out I think there was one it was like three or
four years ago they found out some guy died and the radio stations numbers were
like a countdown to what was it usually it was surprisingly something really
stupid so I hate to even bring them on it but that was like one of it but at
the same time you kind of like I love the mystery of this number station is
but damn I figured a diamond is really crap but maybe just maybe one of them is
gonna read really badass and I kinda wanted maybe having to do
this in the following year but I want to take one of the number station for
repeat so maybe it's like PI or something and they're gonna crack that
code but here the number station sequence and
then use that for a puzzle so maybe just leave that but now that's well that was
the one that I think I remember if I remember it correctly was the exact case
partner all right so next is this this is where the lowest hanging fruit really
comes in for him if you have not had the opportunity to see Open Sesame
by Sammy really probably one of the best hacking inspirational videos that you'll
see in the past ten years hands down he took I think it was as
sisters or his daughters old little like Speak & Spell toy and was able to make
it open up any crime short any garage door and the work through the process to
how he figured that out was just freakin badass and I just just give you a little
like flow on this he won he just listened to the frequency and you can
figure out hey I can send these bits and bytes so he just cloned his garage door
open of the first one and then he's like okay well let's figure out the protocol
okay I got the promo club down now I can just blast all the pipes okay it'll take
20 hours to open up any garage door which is an enormous amount of time okay
well how do we compress that we'll figure out all of the exact number of
bytes okay well that hastened it up but then
he ends up figuring out all the way down to the bare bones of it that there's
this really cool mathematical formula that
recommended and that's like way smarter than all of us in this room that's like
super over there figured out that you that airwaves are kind of like this
receive all that similar to how you can do like Mac spoofing on Wi-Fi where you
can have two or more the same MAC addresses on the Wi-Fi network because
it doesn't know how to connect to the specific device and still communicate
it's similar for that of craft stores it's just always listening waiting for
the exact right bytes so let's say I was gonna send the opening code was like one
zero one one one zero or whatever it was it's listening for that exact number so
he figured out this mathematical guy figured out the exact equation so that
you could say I have something that's 32 bytes long and I need to use all the
possible combinations ever of that binary sequence and transmit them so it
would be like this random random ass like one zero one zero sequence that
would literally open the garage door in like three seconds which totally defeats
the whole twenty hour thing and all on this little kid like kids toy you're
like damn that inspires me I could never do that
he said that same thing please check stuff out like that it's really really
cool and on there this is why I hinted there's gas fireplaces things like
wouldn't it be kind of funny if you're like driving down the road and you just
push your button because like all like these peoples gas powered like
fireplaces to have a radio frequency and they all are labeled like you could look
this stuff up online it's not hard to read some of this you just push in there
is like fireplace turns I believe
did you do that no but I mean there's other uses for other than controlling
people I mean I kind of like the trolling content but I wanted to always
do it so that I get lazy and I just be like hey like so ok Google will you
because I'm not gonna pay like $500 for a stupid little like Wi-Fi like remote
starter when I can just like click a button but anyway and last is this this
power meter on the right and this is I can't talk too much about this project
that I worked on other than there's a fun thing called breaking the cyber
kinetic barrier and what that effectively is is something in the
digital realm that effects something in the physical realm breaking the
connection as it says so when you were kids you probably remember meter maids
walking around to your house and checking the meter saying hey this
person used this much like gas or electricity whatever it isn't they go
well those jobs don't exist anymore I don't know if anybody really know missed
that but something I noticed after I was like you know what it was like some
drunken conversation I don't know and you start reading them all these open
specs and you can find out that a lot of these devices have very very cool ways
of communicating all of the data and they actually are both receive and
transmit so you can do a lot of bad things like cause massive blackouts
because everybody has the same power company in those areas just in so it's
scare a few people so that's why I can't tell you too much detail about it but I
will tell you that there's no way to fix any of these problems just through it's
not like you could just update firmware on like millions I mean what are we at
like 200 plus million people in the US but nonetheless you're talking so
millions of houses don't even know what everybody has but totally recommend
looking this and this would be like that fun thing you're like you know what hey
let's not talk about this maybe this can be done my god what a way to talk in any
conference there you go that's that's your first is your first one there and
then on the left I didn't put it out there but Gautama which is like an
actual new like way to transmit with like your cell phone that you can make
this mesh network of phones like using those devices and basically somebody
actually popped them all and was able to do anything they want with them even
though they're corrected but these aren't used in a lot of countries which
I didn't even know there's like a like micro black market like especially like
quarter we go for some reason because of like the massive hurricane that happen
there so they those things are selling for like a thousand dollars a pop which
is absurd because you get home for like 60 bucks but they needed them because
there was no way to communicate with anybody like I was saying for that
survival is victory but he wouldn't it be really cool if you could just play
with some of this stuff and then give a talk on it well yeah that's exactly why
I'm talking about it alright so these and this is where I guess the those that
are in hands probably should should care this is where I'm gonna I guess taken
more serious no the for those that are hands you should probably really know
about what's going on with the new FCC regulations that are going on for those
that are about hands you should probably care about some of these things that are
going up our FCC is a nightmare right now but actually it's probably think
it's it's no different ever been but for whatever unknown reason they're deciding
let's apply all of these things that we could possibly do and
like move stuff along and not saying that this is a bank not that I don't
know if any of you know what what this means here but in this there what the
FCC is trying to do they're trying to pass this resolution and it's supported
by an interesting group what some are hams yes and others are not but I must
say most are not they're trying to make ham only accessible but everything
that's transmitted over there has to be completely open and this is I know
that's something you're like oh yeah well then sorry asleep knows like
whatever sign it's it actually is way way more ridiculous it means like you
cannot use like PSK 31 like why like do you not understand it's like you can't
use Bitcoin because I don't understand it that is like the dumbest reason to
not use something it's like their their concept behind it is hey terrorism is
bad I actually know all this stuff is bad just I don't understand it stop
doing it it should only be for voice like the Internet's not for voice only
units so check this out like this is why bit more hands that can exist them keep
pushing that might sound like a broken record
it just involved things just learn about what's actually going on because this
this could be actually tremendously difficult down the way I mean imagine if
we this could put a halt on a bunch of different types of protocols and new
technologies that you guys could eventually or your kids or whomever
would try to create so I want you to look look and read about some of the
stuff and you can actually make comments even though you're not a ham that's just
it's really interesting to note some of these things that are happening so I I
can only imagine if they're trying to do this in an area that most people are
like obviously it's an amateur you got a pay but it's it's a small enough market
space that people are not going to like have too
much of an impact but imagine that this is going to happen like I'm gonna say
the net neutrality thing cuz that's a whole nother realm but imagine if they
have something here but it was just that one more step into affecting the rest of
it like okay but we started doing it over in this round why aren't we doing
it over here because the law is already this way that's that's the sort of thing
that's gonna happen so that's why I want some of you guys would look into this
stuff there's an actual name for which what is it called
it's RN 11 831 so it's something to read about and and look into okay so with
that oops one of the other fun things is for those
that are not hams encryption and not gonna ask all of you guys what you guys
think about encryption but I will say that you're not oh you're not supposed
to do encryption over here it's kind of like this fundamental um ham code it's
actually illegal but its encryption is very funny word actually they don't
intend to say encryption this is it's one of the bylaws and it says you're not
supposed to obfuscate the meaning of your transmission so if I was going to
speak in super twin code to you saying the bird flies at midnight
like that could that be obviously having a meeting I don't know if you're a twin
you totally get what you're talking about I mean it seems a little funny
like the number stations like this stuff just exists anything's
this than the US tip so I don't know where they get this but then they also
go to say that the encryption level is also one of those things but if you
publish your keys so for example you saw earlier I was talking about how you can
have Wi-Fi over him well that's if you use nulled out and critic users you
wanted to use SSH your SSL which is like what the hell's the point at that point
but the thing is if you also publish your encryption key that's just as okay
what did you think technically it is and like the hammer oil like five people go
to argue that the funny thing is they're super against that occupation of the
meat which is even more concise i mean lawyers like fight over all this crap
anyway but with that being said there's the next bit which is if I have a
special repeater anywhere and you wanted to speak with it and transmit because
that's something you're allowed to do to him and give hoping that open everybody
else how do I communicate with that remote device if it's in the mountains
securely so that nobody knows her so nobody like brace into it and does
whoever that whatever they want with it you have to do encryption wouldn't you
think so that's actually one of those newly like brought great lines that a
lot of hams like tend to like abide by that you can remote in encrypted Li to
this device but everything else has to be completely open and you're not
allotted like talking code with your friends anyway so if you want to
disagree with me I would love to happen to me because I think that's kind of
like my thing how I roll with it but so anyway I don't want to bore you too too
much any longer because closed rooms so with that
for those that are attending thought cotton listen up so I found this project
which has the most absolutely unfortunately that is a person using
Raspberry Pi and slow scam television which is SSTV and they're from
Netherlands so they don't really you know what they're talking about but if
you if you lower case everything and if you put PI SS T V all together you have
a very miss spell work and it's a fun little project that I'd like you to
check out it's yeah I mean these from Amsterdam but how would you really know
I mean you should know but nonetheless totally look into that project that
might be something I'm if not it's for your edification also Morse code so this
is this is one of those things that I really really enjoy and you don't
actually don't need to know CW to be able to get your ham license by the way
that was something that was removed from the license requirement of two years ago
so but was really really cool about more suppose a lot of people still do it and
it's kind of like one of those cool things that you could like start hearing
you're like oh yeah I know that yeah you're totally in there then but the
what what I like to do is like I'd like to do automatic listening of it and
being able to repeat some of that back because that's a lot legally you're
allowed to do a lot of these repeating and playing as long as you transmit your
your callsign back so fun stuff for you guys to look into its having a really
cool little method and I might be doing a little fox hunter tube is that was
there's gonna be a little bit harder than you think there'll be an easy one
and a hard one so I know how to do a fox hunt the ways that I mentioned earlier
okay so without boring you guys to too much more I really would like to thank
you for coming to this really late at 8 p.m. talk especially on a Thursday night
before even a longer day and drinking ahead so so thank you all and
oh one one little other hinge for a safer god that weird I was sponsored by
aluminum body okay that doesn't mean anything to anybody here so don't worry
about it no finger not Leena okay so on that note I'm gonna say thank you very
much for attending and I'm gonna stay up here for questions or I'll be happy to
stand up here if you have any questions you just want to dialogue about how much
you disagree with me or I'm boring or some other fun things and maybe I'll
give you a couple of projects feel free to go or come up whatever you want to do
I just thank you thank you guys
you
