Read about this the other day on the zed.
The man was a true pioneer he also held an amateur radio ticket. Sorry to see him pass. By the way there is a few articles over there about different aspects of radio communication throughout the different wars. Interisting reads. Did you know at some point the US was using power transmission lines as a part of their VLF arrays? Imagine antennas that ran for hundreds of miles

And the Soviets used railroad lines too.
Pretty clever.

Heh they got the idea from us. We abandoned the idea when they figured out antennas work better when they are not strapped to the ground
