30-Day Writing Challenge: 2/30
It’s one of my biggest hobbies. Ham radio is a hobby where normal people like us acquire a license, build their own radios (or buy), talk to people 1000s of kms away without using phone or internet, connect to satellites, bounce signals off the moon, participate in competitions like fox hunt and do many more awesome activities.
It is such a great way to practically learn about radio communication.
And I was able to receive communication from the repeater on the International Space Station recently, transmitted by fellow Ham operators.
