Man rather send arbitrary data at 69bits per 15sec frames, 40db bellow noise floor, at the speed of light, and under right conditions world wide coverage with just 5-10w than go to therapy

Is that noise floor in the room with us right now?
It's always with you 🫡
Clearly you have never been to my house, nor dealt with my neighbor's 40kw solar array rfi.
I have the opposite problem, a 50KW FM radio station transmitter nearby. I have to put a 30dB notch filter in anything if I want to use VHF.
Holy crap. Brutal.
At night, my neighbors solar RFI is dead silent and the rural desert goes silent. I have a strong am radio statio on 1050, but it is pretty tight overall.

Woah! Ja8call is honestly magic. Have had full qso 5000 miles away at 20w at times I couldn't even hear the signal in the noise.
