The Lone Radio Operator Sweetwater County Wyoming 1945

 Ingrid Berg, 49, was a radio operator in the Merchant Marine. After surviving two transatlantic voyages, she returned home to find that no one wanted to hire a woman for ground stations. She spent all her paychecks acquiring 77 hectares of barren, sagebrush-covered land near the Continental Divide to set up her own shortwave listening station.

She built a tiny plywood shack and an 18-meter antenna tower using salvaged pipes. She rose at all hours to record ionospheric signals and weather conditions. Dressed in khaki, she carried a logbook, a Morse key, and a short-barreled 12-gauge shotgun "for the coyotes that gnawed through the guy wires."

In 1946, an FCC inspector came and forced her to close her station for operating illegally. She sat him down in front of his receiver, handed him headphones, and let him listen to a faint signal from a Pacific weather ship while she cleaned his rifle. He left with a complete copy of the logbook and a recommendation to leave his station as it was, considering it "valuable wartime surplus work."

His transmission recordings from the 1940s proved useful to early weather forecasting networks. She continued broadcasting under a call sign known only to her until 1983.

A weather ship, or ocean station vessel, was a ship stationed in the ocean for surface and upper air meteorological observations for use in weather forecasting. They were primarily located in the north Atlantic and north Pacific oceans, reporting via radio. The vessels aided in search and rescue operations, supported transatlantic flights,^[1][2][3] acted as research platforms for oceanographers, monitored marine pollution, and aided weather forecasting by weather forecasters and in computerized atmospheric models. Research vessels remain heavily used in oceanography, including physical oceanography and the integration of meteorological and climatological data in Earth system science.

The idea of a stationary weather ship was proposed as early as 1921 by Météo-France to help support shipping and the coming of transatlantic aviation. They were used during World War II but had no means of defense, which led to the loss of several ships and many lives. On the whole, the establishment of weather ships proved to be so useful during World War II for Europe and North America that the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) established a global network of weather ships in 1948, with 13 to be supplied by Canada, the United States and some European countries. This number was eventually cut to nine. The agreement of the use of weather ships by the international community ended in 1985.

Weather ship observations proved to be helpful in wind and wave studies, as commercial shipping tended to avoid weather systems for safety reasons, whereas the weather ships did not. They were also helpful in monitoring storms at sea, such as tropical cyclones. Beginning in the 1970s, their role was largely superseded by cheaper weather buoys. The removal of a weather ship became a negative factor in forecasts leading up to the Great Storm of 1987. The last weather ship was Polarfront, known as weather station M ("Mike"), which was removed from operation on January 1, 2010. Weather observations from ships continue from a fleet of voluntary merchant vessels in routine commercial operation.

Starting in 1939, United States Coast Guard vessels were being used as weather ships to protect transatlantic air commerce, as a response to the crash of Pan American World Airways Hawaii Clipper during a transpacific flight in 1938.^[2][9] The Atlantic Weather Observation Service was authorized by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on January 25, 1940.^[17] The Germans began to use weather ships in the summer of 1940. However, three of their four ships had been sunk by November 23, which led to the use of fishing vessels for the German weather ship fleet. Their weather ships were out to sea for three to five weeks at a time and German weather observations were encrypted using Enigma machines.^[18] By February 1941, five 327-foot (100 m) United States Coast Guard cutters were used in weather patrol, usually deployed for three weeks at a time, then sent back to port for ten days. As World War II continued, the cutters were needed for the war effort and by August 1942, six cargo vessels had replaced them. The ships were fitted with two deck guns, anti-aircraft guns, and depth charges, but lacked SONAR (Asdic), Radar, and HF/DF, which may have contributed to the loss of the USCGC Muskeget (WAG-48) with 121 aboard on September 9, 1942. In 1943, the United States Weather Bureau recognized their observations as "indispensable" during the war effort.^[2]

The flying of fighter planes between North America, Greenland, and Iceland led to the deployment of two more weather ships in 1943 and 1944. Great Britain established one of their own 80 kilometres (50 mi) off their west coast. By May 1945, frigates were used across the Pacific for similar operations. Weather Bureau personnel stationed on weather ships were asked voluntarily to accept the assignment. In addition to surface weather observations, the weather ships would launch radiosondes and release pilot balloons, or PIBALs, to determine weather conditions aloft. However, after the war ended, the ships were withdrawn from service, which led to a loss of upper air weather observations over the oceans.^[5] Due to its value, operations resumed after World War II as a result of an international agreement made in September 1946, which stated that no fewer than 13 ocean weather stations would be maintained by the Coast Guard, with five others maintained by Great Britain and two by Brazil.^[2]

Best French YOUTUBERS in JAPAN

YouTube has blocked me because they said I don't respect rules, so now no more videos of YouTubers from Japan will be shared on my blog. I don't win money to have a blog; I am disabled, and my life is the internet. YouTube is very important for me. I am very sad. I hope YouTube will give me access to my YouTube account soon. 

Also, I will not like any more videos about Japan from French YouTubers. I was a loyal follower, and they make money with me and many followers.

How to easily listen to radio amateurs bands ?

 AM radio stations on medium wave and shortwave are starting to become rare in 2026.

https://chinaradiosswl.blogspot.com/2025/04/how-to-easily-listen-to-radio-amateurs.html

Why not listen to amateur radio operators ?

They are very active from a lot of places in the world. For amateur radio they are 340 DXCC entities, and for normal people only 200 countries !

They use Single sideband (SSB) and phone (voice)

So you must have a radio receiver with this mode or if you have a computer and internet you can use KIWI or WEB SDR

I wrote an article in April 2025, in this article I try to explain how to begin to start listening to amateur radio bands from 10 to 160 meters.

https://chinaradiosswl.blogspot.com/2025/04/how-to-easily-listen-to-radio-amateurs.html

In 2 years i have listened to around 243 DXCC entities with this WEB SDR

Can amateur radio be dangerous? YES

 In 1983, a Singapore yacht operated by the owner and his wife transporting four German hams on a DX-pedition to Amboyna Cay was fired upon by Vietnamese forces. One of the hams, Diethelm Mueller, was hit by an artillery round and fell overboard. His body was never found. The yacht burned and the rest of the party drifted for 11 days on debris. Another ham, Gero Band, died of thirst the day before the survivors were rescued by a passing Japanese freighter which took them to Hong Kong.

The first shot fell short, but the next shot struck the captain and he threw himself on the floor, although bleeding badly, as he tried to keep the ship on course. Baldur was also hit in the arm, and was bleeding, as was Norbert. Gero was in contact with another station on 20 meters, and advised him that they were under attack. As Gero left his position, they noticed that Diethelm was missing. It was not actually known if he was shot or thrown overboard. Their dinghy had fallen into the water, and everyone climbed into it, while the boat burned. The shelling continued, as they drifted farther away from the island. They had hoped that the message Gero had sent out on 20 meters had been received okay, and they would be rescued by U.S. Air Force planes in a few days. They believed that the Vietcong had shelled them, and soon discovered their dinghy had also been hit, but they were able to plug the hole with cloth. The bad news was that they had no water, and nothing to eat, and all were only partially clothed with no shoes. They used a small basket to catch tiny fish, which they ate, along with a few mussels from the bottom of the dinghy, but still no water. After about eight days, Gero tried drinking some sea water during the night, and he was dead by morning. They buried him at sea. Since the Spratly Group consists of so many reefs, sandbars and shallow areas, there is very little shipping nearby, so they had to wait until they got close to the shipping lanes for any hope of rescue. Everyone was suffering terribly from thirst - there was little hunger. The skipper and Norbert were both in bad condition, and everyone’s hope centered on a vision Baldur had had a few nights before, when he believed he heard a voice calling through dense fog: ‘On the tenth day you will be rescued.” (which later became the title of Baldur’s book) After several ships passed, indeed on the tenth day (April 19) they were finally spotted by a Japanese ship, the freighter “Linden” under Captain Inose. On arriving in Hong Kong, they were taken to a hospital, where they recovered from their ordeal at sea.

IN 2026

January 25, 2026

The Belarusian government has issued death threats against three amateur radio operators, arrested at least seven people, and accused them of "intercepting state secrets," according to Belarusian state media, independent media outlets outside Belarus, and the Belarusian human rights organization Viasna.

The arrests represent an extreme attack on what is generally a harmless hobby, one that has historically been vilified by authoritarian regimes, in part because the technology is relatively resistant to censorship.

The arrests were announced last week on Belarusian state television. According to the channel, the men belonged to a network of more than 50 people practicing amateur radio and were accused of "espionage" and "treason." Authorities stated that they had seized more than 500 radio devices. The men were accused on state television of using radio to track the movements of government aircraft, although no evidence was presented.

State television claimed they were affiliated with the Belarusian Federation of Amateur Radio Operators and Sports Radio Operators (BFRR), a long-established amateur radio club and non-profit organization that organizes amateur radio competitions, meetings, training sessions, and forums.

On Reddit, Siarhei Besarab, a Belarusian amateur radio operator, issued a plea to fellow enthusiasts: “Emergency appeal from Belarus: Certified amateur radio operators face the death penalty.”

“I am writing this because my local community is being systematically exterminated in what I can only describe as targeted intellectual genocide,” Besarab wrote. “They arrested more than 50 licensed individuals, including those whose call signs were EW1ABT, EW1AEH, and EW1ACE. These men were presented on state television as war criminals and forced to publicly repent for the ‘crime’ of technical curiosity. Propagandists portrayed the Belarusian Federation of Amateur Radio Operators and Radio Sportsmen (BFRR) as a front for a ‘vast espionage network.’”

“State propaganda claims, without a hint of irony, that these men ‘uncovered state secrets out of thin air’ with simple $25 Baofeng handheld terminals and off-the-shelf SDR keys,” he added. “Any operator knows that this equipment is physically incapable of breaking the modern AES-256 digital encryption used by government security services. This is technical fraud, and yet they are being charged with high treason and espionage.” In Belarus, these charges carry a sentence of life imprisonment or the death penalty.

The Belarusian human rights organization Viasna and its associated Telegram channel confirmed the arrest and reported speaking with a fellow inmate of Andrei Repetsi. The inmate explained that Repetsi was not allowed to discuss his case in prison: “The case is classified, so Andrei never divulged the details in his cell. He joked that his file was marked: ‘Top secret. Burn it before you read it,’” Viasna wrote.
