   The FAA has announced that they will investigate an incident after two pilots were heard meowing and woofing on an emergency aviation frequency.

     But seriously, why do they assume the communication came from a plane and not some kid with radio gear?

     They’re going to be fired, and they’ll be furrious. Not fast and furrious, though, because you know, no plane and all.

     I think this could be a Spartacat moment. (Everyone starts meowing over the emergency channel).

     Couldn't they send small weak messages with an rf hacker?

     Radios that can transmit on airband are really expensive and regulated

     Nerfed... That's why I'm thinking some kid bored and waiting for a flight played with his sdr and picked up on the channel and meowed at the tower.

     oh those sdr thingy dingies? They’re transmitting power is nerfed to like nothing, someone could have gotten an airband radio and fucked with pilots it’s happened before but the FAA is super srs about people fucking around on it and will absolutely find them if they keep it up, I agree with the ham bootlickers on that one it’s really dangerous and can get people killed

     It ain't like it used to be. You can get a 10w baofeng and reflash it to let you talk on any frequency you want. That's basically the same power as an airplane...
