Signal Moon: A Short Story

Product Information

This short story is definitely a fun read and it was very interesting to learn about the Y stations which were so important to the codebreakers at Bletchley Park. I want to say this is a timeslip story but that isn’t quite right. It’s more of a time-merging story, or a bit of technological SF sleight of hand story. It’s best to just say that it works. It all works marvelously, and let the how and why of it remain a bit nebulous. Our modulation technique, LoRa, uses Chirp Spread Spectrum modulation that allows for low power, long range transmissions at the cost of a low data rate. The logical side of me knows that it had the best possible ending. The emotional-fool side of me feels let down by the bittersweet feelings it generated. ‘Ye Dil Maange More’, what to do! Signal Moon changes things a little. It’s got a more supernatural twist with events set in the present day as well as the past. What is Signal Moon by Kate Quinn about?

This is a fun story that grabbed me from the start. I did the eBook/audio option so I could read and listen to the audio at the same time. The audio added a lot to the story. The audio was narrated by Saskia Maarleveld and Andrew Gibson. The sound affects made the story wonderful.Recently a group of students from the College of New Jersey are attempting to bounce signals off the moon using the LoRa modulation scheme. LoRa is a modulation scheme designed to be used with IoT devices, however it also has great performance when signals are weak so it's a good candidate for moon bounce.

The experiment also proved that LoRa technology, used for many IoT (Internet of Things) applications, can cover such great distances and that it is possible to send and receive low-powered messages from the Moon. This could become relevant for future lunar communications. In addition to the LoRa chips, the team used an SDR (software-defined radio) to capture both the transmitted and received signal for further analysis. These measurements together with analysis notebooks will be published as open data. An in-depth overview of the entire experiment and results will be presented at The Things Conference in January 2022.

No one bothered to take off the coats bundled over their uniforms; it was far too cold. One of the advantages of joining the Wrens was supposed to be that sleek, dashing, brass-buttoned uniform (designed by Molyneux!), but no one ever saw the uniform here; Lily and her fellow Y Station listeners spent every shift bundled. Although most modes have been used with EME, until recently CW dominated. However the advent of weak-signal digital modes, such as JT65 and QRA64, has led to a significant rise in their popularity. Because of the higher sensitivity advantage of digital modes, it is possible to use smaller antennas and lower transmit power and this has permitted many more radio amateurs to become involved in EME. Across an eighty-year gap, Lily and Matt must find a way to help each other: Matt to convince her that the war she’s fighting can still be won, and Lily to help him stave off the war to come. As their connection grows stronger, they both know there’s no telling when time will run out on their inexplicable link. Meslec, N., & Curşeu, P. L. (2013).

This story was so beautiful it just about broke me. It was gorgeous and glorious and heartbreaking all at the same time, and I was in tears at the end. While Matt’s more frank and frequently profane dialog, along with the desperation of his own internal monologue, gives the reader or listener a clear portrait of who he is and what drove him to become the person – and the officer – that he is on the brink of what could be – briefly – his very own war.

EME regularly takes place on all amateur bands from 50MHz up to 47GHz, with 144MHz and 1296MHz by far the most popular bands for activity. Some EME activity has even taken place on the 21 and 28MHz amateur bands.A novella available from Kindle Prime. Kate Quinn has written well-researched and informative books of historical fiction based on real people and events. This one is a stretch where she enters the realm of fantasy, and it works! Lily is from a titled English family and has set aside her life as a debutante. It is 1943, and she works at one of the Y stations scattered through the country. The task is intercepting coded enemy communications and sending them to Bletchley Park for decoding. She worries about the outcome of WW2 and whether her friends will survive on the battlefield. Will the allies be defeated by enemy forces, and does her work have any value? Kate Quinn is known for her thrillers set with real individuals. That changes a little with Signal Moon. Here’s our review of Signal Moon by Kate Quinn. In short, I loved it to the core. What an amazing ode to the legendary Bletchley Park and the young women who played a vital role through their interceptions! Strongly recommended for historical fiction lovers who don’t mind a dash of low-key sci-fi.
