technical

1) Something that is exact or close to perfect, usally spoken by a person of relativly high IQ

2) A modified pick-up truck or SUV, usally a toyota. These are used by terrorist organizations for pretty much everything. Seen very often in Africa and South America. Usally seen with a .50-caliber machine gun or Rocket-Propelled-Gernade (RPG} mounted on the bed. Useful for drive-bys until the US Army pulls up with thier Humvees. Also they include a CB radio system installed. Only Western military forces use VHF radio systems. Technicals are usally poorly driven and have a few rebel/terrorist fighters in the back firing/attempting to fire the machine gun mounted in the back. Also holding AK-47s.

Roger victor six, we've got threee technicals coming up on your 5 o'clock, engage now"

Top 40

Top 40
a FM radio format that usally plays music thats the top 40 on the charts, they may play music that is (sarcastic gasp) more then 2 years old!!!!

GET WITH THE PICTURE PEOPLE...

Top 40 stations suck, most of the good music is older, and is rock/alternative rock.

"I hate Top 40 stations"

Geosynchronous Orbit

An orbit that permits a communications satellite to mantain a fixed position relative to the surface of the earth.

Many of the radio communications satellites the USA puts up are in a geosynchronous orbit.

451

Firemen don't put out fires, they burn books.....


the temperature at which books burn.

so also 1984

The world has pretty much become like Fahrenheit 451.

F region

That portion of the ionosphere existing between approximately 160 and 400 km above the surface of the Earth, consisting of layers of increased free-electron density caused by the ionizing effect of solar radiation. Note 1: The F region reflects normal-incident frequencies at or below the critical frequency (approximately 10 MHz) and partially absorbs waves of higher frequency. Note 2: The F1 layer exists from about 160 to 250 km above the surface of the Earth and only during daylight hours. Though fairly regular in its characteristics, it is not observable everywhere or on all days. The principal reflecting layer during the summer for paths of 2,000 to 3,500 km is the F1 layer. The F1 layer has approxi­mately 5 ´ 105 e/cm3 (free electrons per cubic centi­meter) at noontime and minimum sunspot activity, and increases to roughly 2 ´ 106 e/cm3 during maxi­mum sunspot activity. The density falls off to below 104 e/cm3 at night. Note 3: The F1 layer merges into the F2 layer at night. Note 4: The F2 layer exists from about 250 to 400 km above the surface of the Earth. The F2 layer is the principal reflecting layer for HF communications during both day and night. The horizon-limited distance for one-hop F2 propagation is usually around 4,000 km. The F2 layer has about 106 e/cm3. However, variations are usually large, ir­reg­ular, and particularly pronounced during magnetic storms.

good thing there are like 10 people in the world who know what that means
