This is the imaginary web address supposedly required to use the FT8 digital Amateur Radio communication mode in the NCVEC Technician Question pool, come to life.
FT8, and the other modes built into the WSJT-X (Weak Signal by Joe Taylor) software allow Amateurs to test radio signal propogation, and to send short text messages between each other over long distances, generally using low power.
No online conversion, Internet assistance, etc is needed to work FT8. It is purely radio to radio.
You can download the offical software and manuals here: https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k1jt/wsjtx.html
The Wikipedia article is: WSJT (amateur radio software)
Technicians can use these mode from 10 metres (28 MHz) and up.
This site, hamexam.space allows you to learn what you need to know to obtain a licence to take part in this, and other Amateur activities.
