Thanks for the "tip"

Don't be surprised if the FCC "reviews" your station's license.

Well, think about it. If you're in a less developed country undercover, a computer might stick out. But a radio doesn't look like anything odd. Say we have somone in a forgin country and the CIA needs to comunicate to them. They go in with nothing and can pick up a short wave radio once they are there. Cheap and easy. Getting a computer and internet access might be hard.

Very true...come to think of it, sometimes it's easiest to trip up high tech stuff with the most old fashioned and simplest methods. Perfect example, supposedly Al Queda has for the most part given up using satellite phones and gone to hand delivering messages!
