AMATEUR RADIO or HAM RADIO

Compiled by AP2HA


Amateur Radio or Ham Radio is a very interesting hobby. It has something fun for everyone. Peoples from all walks of life enjoy this hobby by using two-way radio stations from their homes, cars and outdoors. Amateurs communicate for service organisations during emergencies including Hurricanes, Earthquakes, Fires, Rescues etc. Radio Amateurs use voice and CW ( morse code ) for two way communication. Some Hams also use computers to operate different digital modes like RTTY, AMTOR, PACKET, PSK31 and SSTV etc. They exchange their QSLs after the contacts. If you have any question about this hobby, please feel free to email me.
