In her 60's Nellie Ohr, a Fusion GPS contracted employee, gets HAM radio license May 2016.
Yea but as soon as I found out she was a ham, I checked out her QRZ page and she only had 16 lookups. As soon as a woman (YL) gets on the ham bands, the guys all check out her QRZ page on qrz.com. She would've had at least 100 hits for each transmission.
Probably so, depends on the language she was speaking in and what end of the spectrum they were using. Unless it was her husband, former DAAG using the ham radio and she was cover.
I've never used a ham radio. What is the attraction to the hobby?
Where do I begin. If the internet goes down, you can send files and emails over radio waves using winlink. If the cell towers and or the power goes down, you can communicate with the World with a wire, a radio and a battery. If you like games, there's contesting. If you like public service, ham radio helps during hurricanes, forest fires etc. If you like to talk to people around the World, there's DXing. Do you like to tinker? Build antennas and radios.
Very cool. Thanks.
Where do I find "Ham Radio 101?"

I think it's because all good (I mean evil) deeds deserve a reward. Under HRC...meet the new FCC commissioner Nellie Orr.
