Sr-90 that was involved in cases you mention is strong beta emitter, but Pu-238 isn’t, it’s mostly-alpha emitter, so it’ll only get dangerous if somebody ingests it, but it’s a piece of ceramic inside a strong case

it’s not the type of plutonium that is fissile, 40% of it decayed by now, and it was formed into hard, chemically resistant ceramic in the first place

yet another reason for installing pihole

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

at least he didn’t cause a civil war

plenty of drone teams release geolocated videos day after they happen, but in this case i’ll guess that real sauce is classified top secret, that thing is outdated info and everyone is five steps ahead

ahem

triple the defense budget

the theoretical reason for doing that is that if you have to split jamming power over broader frequency range, then for every n^2 times increase in bandwidth, here number of channels, range decreases n times. however gnss signals are so weak, it probably doesn’t matter, and if you’re adding extra power per channel, then it doesn’t apply

now if missile detects that gnss is fucked with (signal too strong, wrong direction, physically impossible location), the correct thing to do would be to fallback to inertial navigation while accepting that accuracy decreases until gnss can be received again, if at all, and acted upon. theoretically speaking, it’s a matter of software update, better hardware also can help with that, so idk why would they release this. maybe there’s something that prevents this

things that bounce from ionosphere. shortwave radio, AM broadcast, some military communications. couple of radiooperators will take a break for a day or two until space weather gets calm. unlikely that satellites would get fried

if you’re lucky, you might see aurora tomorrow, even if you’re in area that usually doesn’t have them (easier for southern hemisphere)

can you pull ethernet cable along power cables, wherever they are?

regular ethernet should work on this kind of distance, but it means digging

Mate do i have just the right thing for you, but it requires some soldering. It’s also probably cheapest solution working over longer range than you need

First you need two directional antennas. Use this https://lea.hamradio.si/~s53mv/wumca/cup.html the 13cm design specifically. Design of the dipole element is on another page https://lea.hamradio.si/~s53mv/wumca/sbfa.html They’re using hard to get semirigid coax but you can really just use common RG178 with braid tinned to make it stiff. This way you don’t have to leave D section they way they did, you can just solder core to the shield at the end while preserving total length (or ~1-2 mm less, because wifi is slightly higher frequency; 53-52 mm total). That dummy cable thing can be just any stiff piece of wire. Good way to get this would be getting a pack of u.fl-SMA pigtails, which you can also use for connection.

You also don’t need special aluminum housing like they do, cookie tin of the right size would be sufficient, or any other container of similar nature. If you can’t weatherproof it, putting it inside on windowsill is also fine

Then, plug TL-WN722N into it, or some other single-antenna thing, and you’re set. This one connects over USB and has removable RPSMA antenna, so you can connect it easily with correct cable (SMA plug - RPSMA plug)

to your new directional antenna. This thing works well over 200m distance, provided clear line of sight, and probably more than that
