Of course, real nerds would be using amateur radio :)
- ...of course, they would! (probably in addition to one of the frequencies in the table!). For those so licensed, the "national calling frequency" for simplex communications on 2-meters (the most affordable portable/handheld radio) in the US is 146.520 MHz. If you were monitoring that simplex frequency, you might hear a "real nerd" nearby to the hash location. --Briand 20:49, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe there should be a code word in the case of being intercepted like, "Internet to red spider come in" some simple little thing to make it more fun and pointless! --Ishboo 05:00, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think any number of xkcd-based "catchphrases," such as 'raptor defense' or 'man with the hat' could be easily recognized by enthusiasts. It would almost be more fun to not have a standard, in my opinion. Trying to come up with covert but easily recognizable messages is half the fun. --Tim P 05:40, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
