I'm just glad they're taking Chinese companies seriously. With all sides of the government ready to sanction and tarrif chinese EVs completely out of America, and even Mexico if they can leverage their power enoigh, automakers could easily continue to ignore the unfulfilled slice of the market looking for small inexpensive EVs.

No worries, figured a little clarity would help squash the misunderstanding.

Projection is a hell of a drug I suppose.

Yeah, we're not too too far removed from the last solar minimum either, so we got a good deal of solar cycle left before the next minimum too. I say this all the time but hams are the coolest sun worshiping group I've ever been a part of.

Its nominally called a 'random wire antenna' but the caveat is that it needs a tuner and if the wire length is too close to a length that makes it naturally resonate without a tuner, the antenna will not work.

Ive heard people say that they can get their random wire antennas fed right into the g90 with little issue, I don't have the tech specs but Id assume its near 9 to 1 if their random wire is working, and that's made me curious to try the unit since I don't have any SDR yet. The unit only pumps out 20w max so thats probably a factor. On my Yaesu ft 891where I can run 100w easy I use an external LC tuner and a counterpoise to mitigate rf buildup on the chassis though.

Im seeing more sstv memes lately and im all for it, about time I say.

Never been a better time to get into HF communications I think. You can get fairly inexpensive (comparatively anyway) Chinese software defined radio by Xiegu, and literally just stick a long wire in the back as an antenna and since the radio has an auto tuner, all you need to do is get that wire as high in the air as possible. I don't have that radio so I use a manual tuner but a setup like that is the only way I can get on the air from my current house.

My claim was my tax dollars dont go to the chinese government, you showed they indeed don't go to the chinese government. Nice try twisting the premises though, but my original comment is right there, you can chek it any time.

Big false equivelency. Tax money going to some unnamed 'organizations in' certian countries is incomparable to money and weapons going directly to the government of a country conducting genocide with those weapons. Its honestly funny you'd think giving random unnamed organizations money is the same as arming a military conducting genocide. Also just because you dont see something doesnt mean its not happent, there are tons of laws both US and international being passed to curb forced labor. Articles get posted here all the time when new companies end up on the sanction list. Pretending they don't doesn't make your arguement better.
