Ohh of course, CB vs HAM, I wasn't even thinking of that! I may start looking into that, I think it would be fun to tinker with. How do you use it (or plan to use it)? Just like, talk with strangers out in the world?

KE8ZNV is my call sign, I still need to test for my general, but I’ll likely not change my call sign when I do. But I would love to have a W8 call sign 

Testing is very easy and fun. At least for the technician (where I’m at right now, step 1) — HamStudy is a paid app that’s worth the money when it comes to preparing for the test. 

There is some overlap with truckers, but you’ll likely not find much of their radios and equipment here.

oohh do you have a fun callsign? Some day I'd like to get into HAM. My uncle was a trucker and had soooo many radio rigs

how weirded out would you be if I suggested I literally feel them like a human antenna? 🙃🤣🫶🏻

Yes! Sometimes they help boost your signal and other times it’s the complete opposite and you can’t get as far. 

Our ionosphere is extremely overcharged right now to a point we’ve never seen in recorded history.  So a lot of what we are seeing, it’s a whole lot of guess work

this keeps tickling me for some reason… 

do you notice solar flare interactions in the frequencies?

I used the ham radio invite to convince our littlest dude to go to to the doctors. 

our bodies send out frequencies when they need help. 

thank you for being you lovely 🫶🏻

It’s a convention outside of Dayton held every year for amateur radio enthusiasts 

So you’ll see a lot of antennas and radios and all kinds of frequency related gadgets

whattt is HAMvention? 

this sounds fantastically fun and cool 🫶🏻

Love it!! I’d give you a hug any day 😘🤘🏼

it’s a bit muggy and no air conditioner where I was volunteering

Came back to say you look like my step daughter and her family! Of course she’s my baby girl. ;) if you were in a room I would think you all were family! 🤣❤️🤷🏽‍♀️

You live in Ohio…which means you’ve heard of Kings Island!

Actually I should get a new radio some time. I like talk shows and Tradio. 🤣❤️ is there a tradio where you are?

a convention here in Ohio for the ham radio community. 

So if you’re interested in amateur radio you can come here for the latest radios and antennas or there’s a huge swap meet to pick up older models and talk shop
