Got anyone into ham radio around? Bought a Baofeng years ago just to listen to emergency weather but been kicking around the idea of getting my license and stepping up to a better radio.
I have been studying it pretty hard here lately. Also been studying sat phones.
Both definitely have there place when needed. I’m ready for a baofeng. Hopefully I can get one soon.
If your close to MWC or Chandler I'll give you my UV-5R Plus.
I have a General license, what do you want to know (KI5UYO)?
I saw one or two setups for crazy cheap in garage sales this summer, really wanted to snag one up. But I knew that if I did the wife would likely kill me for getting into another hobby that requires me to buy things. So here we are, radioless and alive.
Thank you I appreciate your kindness, however I’m down by Ada and rarely get up that way.
I’ve got a General License and use my radios often. I like HF phone communication fine but really like the digital modes (FT8 and JS8Call). Both are weak signal algorithms using a computer sound card to communicate worldwide over radio frequencies. I’ve also played with DMR but am liking Yaesu Fusion / Wires-X more. You can use a hand transceiver to connect with a repeater that is attached to the internet. It literally makes digital voice communication with people all over the world very easy.
oh nothing in particular was just curious who was into it on OKS.
Think im going to save up for a 50w i can out in my 4runner and pkay around with.
