You MUST read this article. Radio Astronomers discover half a century old TV signals.

Oopps...... A-Train made a mistake. Just found out I've been fooled. It was a hoax. Damnit.

Hey, don't sweat it. I once believed that a rodent could operate a decent pirate station. History has proven me wrong.

LMAO

I wonder if such a thing is possible, theoretically. EME seems to work for some hams, and that's VHF / UHF bouncing off a distant astronomical object. I wonder if anyone has ever heard other terrestrial signals reflected off the moon.
On a related note, one thing I'd like to know more about is those long distance echoes I keep reading about now and then. Anyone here ever experienced one?

The HAARP facility did some EME tests on 7 MHz on 19-20 Jan, 2008. I think just about all of us who tuned in were able to hear the echoes. But they were running 3.7 megawatts to their massive antenna array. That's the only successful attempt at EME in that frequency range that I know of.
It's fairly easy to hear EME on 50 MHz and above. There is a French GRAVES radar site running on 143.050 MHz that is easy to hear off the moon even with small Yagis when the timing is right.

I hate teaser topic headings.

I know I'm sorry redhat. And in answer to boom box- I'm sure such a thing is actually possible.
