I'm sorry -- every time I think of pigeons I think of that scene in High Anxiety where Mel Brooks is running through the park in terror, pursued by dozens of dive-crapping pigeons...

UNLESS... they fly the wrong way or get hit with a shotgun blast of birdshot.

Even Morse code from a spark gap generator radio is going to be more effective than pigeons.

We actually had a thread in this forum started by Olefin about telegraphs and telephones. I don't think most people realize just how easy it is to restore ANALOG phone systems. Indeed NATO's whole wired communications systems were DESIGNED to easily integrate into or replace the civilian ANALOG phone system.

No guesses on my quotes?

The first is from a very recent movie

The second is from a Classic war movie about WWII.
