this works by looking at the physical characteristics of the lens, so on or off should work regardless, you could have something with some kind of internal shutter to cover the lens maybe
I think you need a few more em-dashes there to be safe
sure there is, you can send files over HF, it may not be FAST, but once you get it into the country, you can just copy the file with a faster method (eg: usb drive), WINLINK supports attachments, so you could absolutely send these files over HF

maybe that's the most interesting on repeaters, but if you get a general license and hop on HF it gets much more interesting IMO, cross county radio is fun, contesting, even on VHF/UHF it's really cool to play with DMR and linked repeaters systems, for example in Florida we have SARNET, a statewide repeater system which is super useful for talking around the state but also for emergencies / during hurricanes.

Yeah, I wasn't sure how often this pops up, it came up in conversation and I'm not familiar enough with HN to see when the last time it was posted, so I figured i'd just post it and let it go unnoticed if it's been posted too often recently.
