by the way here are the IARU bandplans [0] with the beacon frequencies if you need to find them again. [0] http://www.iaru.org/regions.html

Are you sure? There are some beacons by the IARU [0] - across the world - that one after the other transmit their callsign. It can be used to test reception and it can be a challenge to receive a signal from 100s of kilometers away without

A while ago I dove into ham radio a bit. I think what you saw was the 40m and 80m bands (HF band, very high range) which are used mainly for "competitions" (essentially exchanging callsigns). I still find it intriguing because it&

I understand that. My question is since this is https - encrypted http - how do you decrypt the traffic? Is there something running on the phone too? Otherwise you would need the server's private key, right?

How does mitmproxy work? Does it run on the phone or how can you read the https urls?

Can someone explain to me why there is apparently no footage of this? Aren't court hearings supposed to be public or was filming simply not allowed?
