    It really is from “Funkentechnik”: “Spark technology”. I wonder how many people appreciate the post for the cute etymology and how many because it sounds funny.

    Good information for ham radio people, too. Hobby sounds too geeky? Just say you’re into Über-Funk-Parties.

        mittelhochdeutsch (mitteldeutsch) vunke, althochdeutsch funcho, entstanden aus den mit -n- gebildeten Formen des Feuer zugrunde liegenden Substantivs

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
