Check out "slow scan tv" if you haven't already. I have my amateur license and was surprised to learn all of the ways in which radio waves can be utilized
I first learned about SSTV over a decade ago from Portal! I remember I had to get a two sided 3.5mm audio cable to plug my computer's speaker. https://youtu.be/DlIvnc-AZJQ (Video of someone decoding it.)
That's freaking cool, I never knew that. Appreciate the link
No worries! I think this was before Portal 2 and meant as a teaser. The person in the vid clearly has an interesting setup but you could do it with just a normal PC very easily.
