yea I'm not about to buy a license

You broadcast the wrong way you'll get a knock at your door from the local cable company or even the FCC

What about starting in pirate short wave @Jones Malone

Theres proper ways to do it. It just takes some expertise.

you don't have to do pirate if you do short wave

^^^

AM can still royally fuck up a whole areas cable though

but I'm doing FM so...

Same with FM

how so

Technically of you are “broadcasting” even on short wave you need a lic.

When I try to use my virtual mixer to combine my mic and computer audio and inject it into Discord, its great for me but the other people on the recording hear a terrible (((echo)))

I’m a ham radio operator

Shit gets in the air the wrong way, and if houses have a lot of ingress on their lines, it'll come through into their phone service and shit

@HueTheHand yyea but it isn't like an FM license

Where they'll pick up the phone and start hearing your broadcast

Yeah HAM is a whole different story

@Mr. Hughes Radio station is a good idea. We need a network of HAM radio operators and an Enigma Machine 2.0. I'm actually thinking about getting into paper print.

that actually sounds like a good plan

My local dude is pretty into broadcasting and building radios and shit

I'd need to see a citation on that FM interfering with people's home phones and shit

tbh

I dont have a citation but personal experience working on the shit

well why don't radio stations interfere?

Its typically more the telecom company thats at fault, but it can be the broadcaster as well

licensed ones

THe RF spectrum is built to prevent that type of stuff. So if the radio stations are going the way they're supposed to it doesn't happen

You still need to learn about short wave and what you can and can’t do on it. And if you “broadcast” for public consumption you need a FCC lic unless you go pirate which isn’t hard to do I know of 2 patriot groups that run pirate short wave

Because if they are fucking up in that regard the FCC will fuck them up

You let your shit go too wild you'll start fucking up air traffic and closed public service channels

Like I said its typically due to excess ingress on a telcoms install more so than the broadcaster

There's also a way to transmit images via radio signal. You can also rig up power lines to use http communications. I'm NS macgyver

Ingress on cable lines or phone lines will just pick shit up from the air

oh well

You can set up a cell phone to work over the radio also and text

Its not something to be super concerned with if you know what youre doing

I'll see how it goes

But it is something to be aware of

short wave would be interesting actually

i imagine it's a lot harder to triangulate

and it could cover the entire US
