Yet they were completely fine with antics and such running around being photographed openly using them in the CHAZ and during riots. Maybe shit like that is pissing good people off.

Is there a market for previously owned Baofeng's? I have a whole setup with extras that I never figured out how to use. I'd love to turn that into $$. I checked Gunbroker and there's nothing for sale or sold. Am I stuck with my paperweight?

How long before Hams decide to forego using their call signs on the air? I mean, you blurt it out there, and your name and address are a few clicks away for the world (and big brother) to see.

Quoted: I know exactly who she is, but I’m having trouble understanding the wild theories behind her getting a tech license in 2016. None of them make sense. Encryption on amateur radio is illegal, so she’d be broadcasting in the clear. If she was doing super high level shady shit, wouldn’t she use something more secure? And why would she bother getting licensed? Set up a shell company, get a Part 90 license, and use real encrypted radios, at a minimum. View Quote She knew her normal communications were monitored. Most likely it was simply to tell someone it was time to meet in person, not pass info directly over radio. In spycraft, doing something like calling for a radio check at 7:30pm on a wednesday could be a signal to meet at a prearranged place. No one would be any wiser. Basically using ham would let her circumvent surveillance. While the theories may be wild, she falls pretty far outside the norm as far as hams go. |

She worked for the CIA in one of their "research" groups that was spun off for culpable deniability reasons. That spin-off was Fusion GPS. |

Getting her call in the FCC database without testing probably wasn't an issue in the Obama government. I do know that she was a customer at HRO as a friend called them posing like they were her and as soon as she read the call they hung up. I can't imagine why she thought using amatuer frequencies would have been smart in the first place. First off, she's a woman and that alone will generate immediate interest from male hams listening who will find out who her call sign comes back to. Anything that didn't sound on the up-and-up in terms of her operating would have been immediately noticed-you have to remember who lives in the DC area in terms of retirees. Even then, that has to be the most monitored airspace in the world. What good could possibly have come from it? My guess is that the license was for deniability if she were arrested or went thru a security screening with the radio. |

But if she couldn't get away with using a Boafeng at a time where LE agencies weren't expending hundreds of agent's time tracking down cell phone locations of the protesters if not for prosecution then to put them on the no-fly list, anyone using ham radios in DC would be a fool to use them especially since ANTIFA has already been seen using them. I don't think they would be working anyway, I read in the last few days that amateur frequencies are jammed in the DC area already anyway. |

The Baofengs in the hands of a novices are about as effective as Walmart blister pack FRS radios hunters like to use. They work for a couple of miles on the ground on a simplex frequency. As for enforcement, listen to the CB frequencies in cities that are hubs for trucking. You will hear illegal modifications to the radios being advertised over the radios. You will hear solicitation for prostitution. You will hear all sorts of crime and organization of crime. In fact, there is so much of it the FCC has essentially abandoned enforcement on the CB band. A couple of times a year there is a high profile prosecution of someone using the amateur bands, but not often. And, people have been discussing politics and conspiracy theories on amateurs bands forever. Now if the FCC suddenly decides that discussing politics and conspiracies is the same as organizing criminal activities, then I don't know. The left fears the idea of radio communication because they can't flip a switch 1000 miles away and stop you from learning the truth like they can with the internet. |
