If they could track MH370 using WSPR (amateur radio), then they could logically track other (similar) aircraft.

When asked to prove the above and publish a peer reviewed paper, they were unable to do so.

The reader is thus invited to draw their own conclusion.

Publishing a peer reviewed paper would equate to handing their IP over for free. Maybe the right thing to do in the face of such a tragedy is to do that.

Or perhaps they genuinely have some cool technology, and it could be sold into aero, military industries and they want to monetize it.

In that case the right thing to do would be to hand over their projected track data, which it sounds like they did.

They could prove they can replicate the results without disclosing how.

> perhaps they genuinely have some cool technology.... want to monetize it.

They haven't published a patent either.

Again, the reader is invited to draw their own conclusion.

Yeah I am personally skeptical that WSPR data could reliably track anything
