[chbot] [OT] Interesting talk about EME at BR56 next week

[Chris Hellyar]

Hi Mark..

You forgot a detail for the non-hams on the list…

EME = Earth-Moon-Earth. 

ie: bouncing radio signals off the moon to achieve two way communication with another station over-the-horizon on frequencies that are normally line of site…

Cheers, Chris H.
