Welcome!

Thanks!

I’ve been interested in getting into HAM radio.

Never a bad time to jump in! Extra Class helping #[3]​ get her General class

How much does it cost to get into ham radio?

That’s a big it depends. What kind of range do you want. Do you want local line of sight or do you want ability of world wide grid down comms. Testing is about $15 and the 10 year license is $35 to the FCC.

Welcome ✌️🫡

Welcome

Awesome 🫂

The future is here

Welcome fellow Ham! Good to see you over here. 73s

Welcome 👋 📻 📡🍖

Welcome! I'm thinking about getting a HAM license. I love seeing others on Nostr that are operators! #hamradio

It’s definitely a rabbit hole you can spend years playing with and still never get bored. I was able to get up to extra class in about a year, #[3]​ is studying for her General now. Our two girls love taking to Santa and I spend a lot of time chasing Parks On the Air or listening in on the Hurricane watch net in the fall.

Welcome! We need more HAM radio operators in here

I've always been curious about trying ham, but it seemed to be a very niche thing. Whereas with the net (and particularly now with #Nostr), I can reach basically anyone.

Any hams here on Nostr? Would you still recommend it? Do you still meet cool folks on the airwaves?

Nice rig and set up! 73s

Thanks! Love the Icom IC7610. Waterfall is huge and it has diversity receive (ability to listen to a horizontal and vertical antenna orientation) well worth the investment.

Very nice! I have been looking at the IC7610

Followed. ❤️
