    Um... What?

    "Portal
    Changed radio transmission frequency to comply with federal and state spectrum management regulations"

    Not sure what's this all about. There's an achievement for it as well.
    Start on first level and take the radio and stick it on the red button

    Welp they said the button emits something, so idk. Look at the long name of the button and compare it with federal and state spectrum management regulations. Maybe there is some similarity.

    I didn't get anything. All that happened was the radio turned green and some white letters appeared and said "Transmission Received" and I got an achievement. It also says 1 out of 15. I also just had to get near the red button, placing it didn't change anything.

    My guess is Portal 2 or Half Life whatever is next. Or that thing about the box. If anyone has that video btw, I would love it.

    Yeah, apparently they added a radio into every map and there is a spot where you put it to unlock it.

    What I've found by looking around:
    - They added lights to the radios, radios in each map.
    - The radios, when put to the buttons, produce morse code.
    - The morse code probably means something. EP3OMGOMGOMG

    If anyone knows morse code, I'll try and record/extract the radio chatter.

    EDIT: I just found the morse code files. Any GCFScapers: dinosaur1-26.wav.

    Edit again: Some of the files sound like computer signals (digital signals in audio format???). Anyone know if that can be translated?
