[TenTec] Radio Science + QSK = Radar

[GARY HUBER]

Not very likely the Soviet Radar operators were confused.... most if not all were pretty good CW operators and they certainly understood HI HI 73 DSW DE AB9M when they went QRT with their WOODPECKER transmitter. 

Best regards,
Gary - AB9M

As a former Radar Electronics Counter-Measures and Electronics Counter-Counter-Measures operator, I knew it was simply a matter of transmitting a signal of about the same frequency, duration, and slightly stronger than their "return" to confuse their operators.

  I guess we should all be thankful that they didn't confuse your Omni D 
  for a swarm of U.S. ICBMs coming over the horizon...  ;-)
