Data exchange is the cornerstone of our civilization. Almost everything we know has at some point been drawn, spoken, printed, transmitted through wires, radio waves, satellites, fiber optics, or relayed through base stations. American startup [radiogram.world](http://radiogram.world/) proposes to add another method to this list - and consequently, revolutionize global telecommunications.

The startup promises to transmit only short text messages well beyond the limits of direct line of sight. As a result, a significant portion of information can be exchanged without the need for resources spent on voice and video communication, while preserving the essence of the transmitted information.

The technical essence lies in the use of radio waves capable of bypassing obstacles, buildings, hills, and mountains through refraction, diffraction, and reflection off the Earth's ionosphere. The range reaches up to 125 miles and beyond through relay by other devices within the network worldwide.

There is no need to install base stations, as it is highly likely that within the device's range, if not the recipient itself, then at least someone else slightly closer to the recipient, and so on in a relay fashion. Users of 2G-5G already use text in 82% of cases.
