What is HAM RADIO [Explained for Beginners]

Post author By admin
Post date April 12, 2024

What is amateur (ham) radio? I had the opportunity to chat with Helen Shield from ABC Radio Hobart about how amateur radio is flourishing and how I got into amateur radio. I covered my YouTube Channel along with some of the interesting aspects like EME and SOTA in what hopefully will be a great promotional piece for the hobby.

Thanks to ABC Hobart for permission to redistribute this interview.
