DOGE transaction sent via radio using a protocol called Radio Doge
DOGE is not the first cryptocurrency to be sent via radio transmission. Concepts such as mesh networking, amateur radio equipment and portable antennas have given people access to bitcoin transactions without internet access. Mitchie Lumin and Timothy Stabbing recently mentioned in a blog post that the Starlink satellite network of Elon Musk’s company SpaceX will be used to do Dodgecoin transactions without the Internet. For this, a Radiododge Regional Hub was created.
This technology is named RadioDodge which is a low cost and reliable technology. It works with Starlink internet service. This offline transaction was transmitted over HF radio to a regional hub more than 150 miles away in Colorado, USA.
Amateur radio operators help keep cyclists safe during Tour de Tulsa
TULSA, Okla. — With hundreds of cyclists riding over a hundred miles in Saturday’s Tour de Tulsa, there was bound to be some help they’d need along the way. That’s where a local hobbyist group stepped in. “Some of these routes are out there in the middle of nowhere,” Paul Teel said “Stuff on the road,” Teel said. They’re gonna have flat tires. They’re gonna be tired.”
That’s where Teel steps in. “We provide this as a community service,” he said.
He’s a member of the Tulsa Amateur Radio Club. His love for the hobby dates back to his middle school days.
This seems like a cool thing to do…
Historic Bridgnorth mill celebrated as part of UK radio ham event
Daniels Mill, at Eardington, was one of around 300 water and windmills across the UK celebrating National Mills weekend.
Organised by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings, this year’s theme is ‘New Life for Old Mills, ’ to celebrate the repair of wind and watermills which allows the important historical buildings to survive for future generations to come.
In support of the weekend, amateur radio enthusiasts from across the country set up temporary amateur radio stations at a number of the participating mills, hoping to make contact with other ones within the UK and Europe.
Called ‘Mills on the Air’, the amateur radio station at Daniels Mill was operated by enthusiast Martin Childs, from Chelmarsh, who used a special call sign for the event of GB4DM.
