[SCCC] Egypt Internet BLOCKED - Ham Radio Used to Communicate by Egyptians !

[Timothy Coker]

I don't think some of us, with towers and yagi's that cannot be missed from
other's eye sight, will be sending very anonymous messages anytime soon. :)

I liked the article though, reminds me of the guy's in the Falkland Islands
using ham radio transmitters, wires, and battery power to report back to
England on Argentinian troop movements.
