Ethernet As Unintended VHF Radiator

[RobRich]

Apparently a couple of Raspberry Pi 4s using an un-shielded network cable can suffice for 125MHz transmission of CW up to 100m distance using a decent receiver with a simple directional moxon antenna.

On a side note, the FAA and FCC do not take kind to interference in the VHF air band. YMMV.

That's a battle with Ethernet cable here on the FM BC band, aviation, and even 2M band. I have ferrite chokes on every one here, as to not wipe-out the VHF Mid and High bands. With DSL internet here, there's no way that I get speeds close to 100MHz here. 10MHz, sometimes. BTW, that's the way Cold War espionage worked by RX'ing leaky data cables from various gov facilities. can still happen today.
