Ask an Elmer is back! Let’s bust some ham radio myths — the kind you’ve heard on the repeater but never quite believed. Got a bit of folklore from the old timers? A rule someone swore was true?

We’re diving into the truths and the tall tales of amateur radio. Chat’s open, mic’s on — let’s separate fact from fiction, and maybe share a laugh or two along the way.
