After you get into ham radio, you stop looking at touristy things and start looking at the antennas on top!

I can tell you one thing. I've been an amateur operator for about seven years and have never regretted it. It's a ton of fun. And you learn so many things that you would have never thought of in the past.
Also rabbit holes, there are tons of them.
Same, after I got into Helium Mobile, a project to create user hosted mobile network, I think of locations in terms of foot traffic now. #Helium #HeliumMobile
Few 🤝
Antenna towers, repeater stations.....so many once you start looking.
I get really excited when I see big antennas on personal vehicles. I figure out if there is a way to stop and talk to them. Haha
