Amateur
radio is an exciting and fun filled hobby. Those of you who surf
the web regularly can probably relate to some of the similarities
between the hobby and surfing .
Just like on the internet , in amateur radio you meet lots of
interesting people from interesting places all over the world.
Some of the people we meet , we become friends with and as you
know a friend is a wonderful thing to have . You communicate with
them on a regular basis and some of them less frequently but
either way you still exchange ideas and discuss various topics of
mutual interest .
When you think about how big the world really is , it's a miracle
when people meet and get together to form a friendship . No
matter what the medium is , when this happens , it creates the
possibility of us discovering how different yet also how much
alike we are . When this understanding becomes clear to us it
makes us wonder if we all do our part could we make the world a
better place . I for one chose to think so .
Another common thread is that " Ham's " and "
surfers " are both interested in technology and what's
around the bend . The possibilities are endless limited only by
our imiganitions . Great strides are being made in electronics as
well as many other aspects of life .
I enjoy talking to people in other places and learning about what
life is like where they live . It's a hobby that's fun for all
ages , races , nationalities , and gender's. Somewhere in this
world there's a person waiting by their radio that you can just
call up or call for any station to answer you and strike up a
conversation . It's good clean fun and a great way to spend time
. There are also a lot of different aspects of the hobby , so
there is something for everyone .
Below are some links that will provide you with loads of
information regarding this hobby if you think you may be
