Amateur Radio

Welcome to my amateur radio page.
If you don't know what amateur radio is, then let me try to explain it to you.
For those that already know, this will be basic knowledge about amateur radio...

Amateur radio opperators, sometimes referred to as "Hams", are a group of radio operators that can be found world wide.
It is a hobby that is enjoyed by many people that have an interest in radio and electronics. The fact that not just anyone can walk up and obtain their amateur radio licence attempts to keep the "ratbags" off the air. Although this only keeps the honest people off amateur radio.
To get your licence, an exam involving basic electronics and also a regulations exam have to be passed to obtain the basic licence. If you do not have this licence, then you run the risk of being tracked down and your equiptment take off you and a fine imposed.
If you want to know more about amateur radio then feel free to e-mail me.
