Ham radios come in all shapes and sizes, and it is simple to stay connected when you are outside recreating. The power of a ham radio handheld device should not be underestimated. In this video I demonstrate how ham radio operators contact each other by exchanging just a few pieces of information. With a radio in your pocket you can go hiking or trail running and communicate with others by exchanging your FCC call signs and then reporting the other stations signal readability and strength.

At the controls today, we have Jonathan M0JSX and Callum M0MCX. We’re using the club call of M0XXT. Thanks to Tim M0URX who does all our QSLing for the club call. Listen in, join in the chat or maybe give us a call. See you on the stream. Callum.
I promise, I am not just gonna say "It Depends!" But that answer deserves more than a simple answer.
