    A signal that's "wobbling up and down the radio dial"? Did FT8 make it that far?

    That is going to be a really long QSO at 4.23 light years each way :cool:

    I don't see anywhere in Part 97.111 Authorized Transmissions where an amateur license authorizes us to have two-way communicate with space aliens.

    On the other hand, if it takes 4.23 years each way, then you could get away with calling it one-way transmissions for at least 8.5 years, before the ARRL VMs have enough on you to turn you into the FCC.

    Someone needs to file a Petition for Rulemaking to allow ham communications with ETs.

    Luckily my QSL will be going through a bureau. I knew that ARRL membership would pay off!

    Let's not forget the potentially more interesting back story here ... who was the "leaker" and why did they leak the story?
