Amateur radio, also known as "ham radio", is a hobby relating to two-way radio communications. It is a hobby that is enjoyed by many people around the world from all walks of life.

Ham radio operators can also be of service to their communities by becoming volunteers for local emergency management agencies. Such as Highland Tower tragedy etc.Amateur radio operators can provide communications in and out of disaster areas when no phone service nor electricity is available. Who's the Typical Ham?


Amateur Radio operators come from all walks of life -- movie stars, missionaries, doctors, students, politicians, truck drivers and just plain folks. They are all ages, sexes, income levels and nationalities. But whether they prefer Morse code on an old brass telegraph key through a low-power transmitter, voice communication on a hand-held radio or computer messages transmitted through satellites, they all have an interest in what's happening in the world, and they use radio to reach out.
