I think the really cool thing about this is the "self echo." Listen carefully when the operator in the video turns it over to the G station. At first I thought they were doubling, or perhaps another station was on frequency. But then I realized that when he releases the push to talk, the first signal he hears is his own signal, bouncing back from the Moon! c is real!
