Re: HAM Radios and Licenses

Just look at my signature.

Eeven the most basic license (Technician) can have a conversation with the ISS. It's not easy, because they are not always overhead and, when they are, they also need to be sitting at the radio. But, the radio signals go in direct line of sight, so even a small (and inexpensive) handheld radio is adequate.

Ham radio is one of those hobbies where you can get involved in a huge number of different things, as N7UJJ touched upon, all united by a common theme: Radio.

Let us know if you have any questions, need to find local hams, take the test, find equipment, or whatever...

Don
