I just remember a poem I read back in the 70s. I vaguely recall something about a guy fighting the FCC. The only bit I can remember vividly was the final line - "stacked moonrakers, 100 milliwatt" and it was only a poem that appealed to a handful of geeks that understood exactly what that meant.

[edit: I also remember talking halfway across the US on citizen's band; by parking at the Marin headlands and bouncing skip waves off San Francisco Bay; a trick I learned from 'River Rat'. Pirate radio was big in California. We knew the laws and the different ways to get around them. Every kid "in the know" dreamed of owning moonrakers. It was the equivalent of owning Altec-Lansing Voice of the Theater concert speakers (I had four.) It was all about efficient wave propagation.]
