Japanese QSO on VHF MURS CH1? More than once.
« on: March 25, 2024, 1910 UTC »
Late Friday night / Saturday morning, around 1:30AM EST, myself and a HAM friend of mine, heard mobile traffic on VHF MURS CH1, 151.820MHz FM. That, in itself is not too unusual, but these dudes were speaking Japanese. One, was using a Baofang HT, due to the recognition of its Roger-Beep. Thinking, that they were on Rt. 64, about 4 miles away is the closest point to me. I heard them on the scanner, with an indoor antenna. Then, heard them again last night around 1:30AM EST, SUN night / MON morning. Contractors rolling through? That, was different.

Just how non-sensible is our government? Whelp, if I were to propose that all instruction manuals for binoculars, microscopes, & telescopes, should be required to include a translation in Braille, for the Visually Impaired, quite likely it might pass. However, I would also propose that the manual's end should include, "This device is not recommended to be used by the Visually Impaired.", just to be real.
