    Makes sense. Here in the Netherlands, it’s quite densely populated. You only need a very small antenna and not much power to reach other people. I know a guy who’s a pirate. He has a telescoping antenna fixed to the back of his house that he can raise up when transmitting. He can reach everyone in his city of about 24.000 people, even with relatively low power. When he’s not using it, the antenna isn’t visible to anyone.

    In the US you’d need a lot more power and a bigger tower to reach people, which means easier detection.
