Yeah, I wouldn't count on an SOS. Now, if you were in Pluto and you were sending a message back here, you'd have a better chance, right? But Pluto balance would not be so good. Now, for moon, VHF, UHF, moon balance is real and routinely done by HAMS. Moon average distance is 384,400 kilometers. So round trip time, you have two times 384,400 kilometers divided by 299,792.458 kilometers. It takes 2.56 seconds. So moon average distance is 384,400 kilometers. Moon balance is basically, it only takes almost 2.5 seconds. So, interesting. Of course, it also says here that return signal strength, why Pluto is impossible, okay, it doesn't matter. There you go. Now you know the facts. Yeah, because I remember hearing some of the space work and how they have that figured out just for one way, transmissions and all that. Yeah, that's pretty crazy. Honestly, I just assume stick you up. At least I understand like Earth and even better, North America. But I don't know, either or. So, I guess I would imagine somebody eventually can pick up these Echolink transmissions just because on the web at least, nothing is ever erased or done away with. Like you could probably use the wayback machine and retrieve some of the stuff. Because I haven't done it, but I know a lot of people use it, like on Internet archives, they use the wayback machine to browse dead sites and places like that because you kind of can go back to where they worked then and look at stuff.
