I don't know, maybe it could even trigger some scary random events, like a spaceship crashing into the station.
That is more or less what I have planned, although more like triangulating signal strengths to find safe telesci coords in the telesci-locked areas. Work in progress. It might turn into a long-range sensor for the SSTV project that Aph and I are working on instead.
Just consider it a placeholder for the moment and a promise that it will become a way to find neat stuff soon.
