Military units from around the world recently participated in Noble Skywave, a global cyber contest, at U.S. Army Garrison Baumholder. 
 
Noble Skywave is a multi-national high-frequency radio contest hosted by the Canadian Armed Forces
 
This year’s competition brought together 429 military units from across 13 nations competing to determine who can most efficiently utilize high-frequency radio technology. 
 
Each team was placed into one of three categories based on the amount of transmitting power their radio station has.
