          | Guest Book  What Can Amateur RadioOperators Do?
 Ham radio operators use two-way radio stations from their homes, cars,
          boats and outdoors to make hundreds of friends around town and around
          the world. They communicate with each other using voice, computers,
          and Morse code. Some hams bounce their signals off the upper regions
          of the atmosphere, so they can talk with hams on the other side of the
          world. Other hams use satellites. Many use hand-held radios that fit
          in their pockets.
 Hams exchange pictures of each other using television. Some also
          like to work on electronic circuits, building their own radios and
          antennas. A few pioneers in Amateur Radio have even contributed to
          advances in technology that we all enjoy today. There are even
          ham-astronauts who take radios with them on the International Space
          Station and thrill thousands of hams on earth with a call from space! |  |
