CD172: LIBERTY FARMER - HAM RADIO, NOSTR, AND BITCOIN

Liberty Farmer is a HAM Radio enthusiast and the lead maintainer of the HAMSTR project. His goal is to make it easier to send and receive nostr notes using HAM Radio. Combined with shorter range bluetooth and wifi  mesh networks, and existing internet infrastructure, this tech could be incredibly powerful at making nostr a robust fault tolerant global comms protocol. We also discuss using HAM Radio to send bitcoin payments without permission.
