I wonder how O'Reilly picked up radio jargon, which he uses frequently. His "wat say u", and "wat sa old man" are terms used in morse code radio ops for decades.

He listens to Art Bell?

Art was active last night - on 3.840 (MHz) - close to a group I talk with once in awhile.

Art's got a new antenna system too; it involves scads of harware cloth (for use as a ground plane) and a large 'loop' for use on "eighty" (meters that is) ... signal reports he's getting have been good - incuding 59 reports at 20 dB over S9 in Alaska ...
