With all the rain I have spent the day talking on my Ham Radio - TopicsExpress



          

With all the rain I have spent the day talking on my Ham Radio Equipment. Today I had conversations with people in many countries around the world including the following last evening... The Canary Islands, Spain, Russia, Belgium, Wales, Finland, Venezuela, Slovenia and the Isl of Man. Us territories including Arkansas, Texas, Nevada, Florida and California... Its a great hobby that has largely been eclipsed with the introduction of cell phones. But with a cell phone you can only talk to people you know. I make new friends around the glob every day....It easy to get a licence (required by law) as Morse code is no longer required. If you are interested look up ARRL (American Radio Relay League) on the internet for information, books and testing locations and clubs in your area...j ARRL.org
