What is Ham Radio
Ham radio, also known as Amateur Radio is a fascinating hobby that has something for everyone. It is a mixture of people, electronics, and communications. Hams use of the radio frequency spectrum for purposes of non-commercial exchange of messages, wireless experimentation, self-training, private recreation, radiosport, contesting, and emergency communication.
People use ham radio to talk across town, worldwide, or even into space, all without the Internet or cell phones. This is a hobby that is enjoyed around the world. There is something for everyone to enjoy.
