Augsburg, Germany the FLR-9 circular antenna array used during the cold war for HF direction-finding of targeted signals. Covering 1.5MHz to 30MHz, the FLR-9 consisted of ninety-six 120' towers, suspending 1056 vertical elements all over a 1500' diameter ground screen!

"C’est un nouveau miracle" ! À 25 milliards de kilomètres de notre planète, les ingénieurs de la Nasa ont pu remettre en marche des propulseurs de la sonde Voyager 1, pourtant considérés comme irréparables ! 👉 l.sciencesetavenir.fr/Kq4

As you could probably guess, I had a lot of fun writing for Radio World about the mystique of double-hop E-Skip on the FM broadcast band! 🗺️ I tried to come up with as many spectacular examples as I could, past and present. 💫 #FMDX #ESkip #SDR radioworld.com/columns-and-vi…

Nostradamus, le radar géant 🇫🇷, développé par l’Onera à la fin des années 1990, installé en Normandie sur 12 hectares, était un peu tombé dans l'oubli. Il suscite à nouveau l'intérêt car il s'avère capable de détecter les planeurs hypersoniques 🇷🇺 à +de 3000 km de distance !

NOAA-15, the last and oldest remaining POES satellite was just decomissioned a few minutes ago. I hope whoever in took the decision is happy about having destroyed some of the most reliable weather satellites in existance. I wish NOAA all the worst luck for future missions.
