Some of the older guys here have told me about using carrier current during that time.
And some bootleg operation on 5 meters. Also if I remember correctly in England they had an "no antenna" class of license. There was a specific prefix for them .... G3 maybe? -----Original Message----- Subject: RE: [AMRadio] Carrier Current Transmission (was WestinghouseTest Meter Unit Type TCT) spend much time on the exam prep. But, in the course of my visit, he related to me that during WWII (for whatever reason, we was not in the military during the war) he recalled that hams would do odd things, such as send LF signals down railroad tracks and power lines, essentially trying to make QSOs with other hams doing the same. He seemed to indicate that it was mainly CW and if he went into details about how it was done, I don't recall them. Has anyone else ever heard similar stories?
