Plot: UVB-76 nicknamed "The Buzzer", is a real life Russian numbers station. It's thought to give radio commands to spies and agencies spread out through the sphere of Russian influence. The player is a Soviet radio operator tasked with decrypting messages.
Audio files: The dev could source sound samples directly from sites dedicated to recording them. Messages are recorded everyday so there's a practically endless amount of material: https://priyom.org/military-stations/russia/the-buzzer

Mechanics: The game will centre around first listening to and jotting down the messages using a table of Russian letters, then "decrypting" the audio message into command codes. And transferring the message to command and operatives according to procedure.
The real life messages are known to follow a set format that can be relied upon and the dev can provide the "expected" translation*, and the player can be rewarded/penalised for how accurate they are. The "decrypted" messages can be made up, but make it interesting.
Aesthetic: In the style of a spooky Papers Please, and follow a gradual story progression as the truth is discovered.
*Edit: Messages have also been conveniently transcribed by the site owner in Cyrllic and Latin script like here - https://priyom.org/military-stations/russia/the-buzzer/2020/december

It may just be me... just this sure sounds a lot like what SafeMoon has discussed doing, but this gives a lot more details. Just curious what some of you guys think.
Is it possible to run crypto's and Bitcoin on a "Ham Radio Network", incase the internet goes OFFLINE...
I do believe Ham Radio's are essential in an emergency or disaster situation when the normal infrastructure, electrical power, telephone service, cell service, internet, may fail... Ham Radio's have multiple antennas to reduce interference and improve transmission and reception of signals. For example,. There are 11 channels in 802.11b and g networks in the United States and Canada;. Channels typically have a bandwidth and the higher bandwidth, the greater the potential throughput... Ham Mesh data can be set to 5 MHz, 10 MHz, and 20 MHz..... This essentially can become a "Private Wifi" Network
Hey I am unfortunately a traitor who decided to go to UW Madison this year. Does anyone know how to access the Vikings games from Madison when out of network without paying for out of network access? I haven’t been able to find anything yet.
Thank you!
