Welcome to my home on net. In this site  I am trying my best to help you in getting Amateur Radio Operator Licence also known as Ham Radio.

Amateur radio, also called HAM Radio, is a scientific hobby use various types of radio communications to communicate with other radio amateurs in various modes for public service, recreation and self-training.

Amateur radio operators enjoy worldwide wireless communications with each other and are able to support their communities with emergency and disaster communications if necessary, while increasing their personal knowledge of electronics and radio theory with more than six million amateurs  throughout the world.

The term "AMATEUR" is not a reflection on the skills of the participants, which are often quite advanced; rather, "amateur" indicates that amateur radio communications are not allowed to be made for commercial or money-making purposes.
