Digital text on The Mighty KBC this weekend

I am also partial to amplitude modulation, but in this modern age, many people are using text to send and receive information.

If we can demonstrate that text via shortwave can be a useful substitute when the internet is disrupted by dictators or disasters, then we will have provided a good reason not to dismantle shortwave transmitting sites.

To that end, there will be more digital text transmissions during The Mighty KBC broadcast to North America, UTC Sunday 0000-0200 on 9450.

They are actually the transmissions that were planned for the past weekend, if a repeat of the 17 November show had not be played out instead. Flmsg will be involved, meaning, if all goes well, a transmitter in Bulgaria will open a new window of your web browser and display a message.
