Awesome stream Josh!, I learned a lot!!!. Always a wealth of knowledge and sound advice. Thanx.
Still catching up on the slightly older videos and the 0:15 meme hits close to home. Currently learning CW at full speed, but can't sustain 30 WPM.
Hertz is the singular, not Hert.
HUGE proponent on learning how to research!! This is how I like to teach others as well, idk if it’s just me but personally I feel like growing in such an age where everything is spoon fed via media logarithms that we don’t teach our young how to find the legitimacy and credible sources without having them just pop up on our feeds. Obviously groups and clubs are WONDERFUL, but knowing how to help yourself is crucial. For ANYTHING in life lol. Just found your channel, love what you’re putting out!!
Hi,
I'm new to ham…. Question, what are your thoughts on the differences and benefits between the Baofeng DM-1701 and DM-1702? What is the best Baofeng to use and have room to grow into? Thanks
Thank good buddy
I am new to ham radio
i have ZERO idea of what hrtz is, signals, frequencies, waves or any of that is. No idea what the formulas are for calculating things, or any of it. I want to learn the foundation of HAM so bad, but have no idea what keywords to use when searching for books and videos. Thanks HRCC!
I live in South florida. It feels like no body is on the air. Ive set up miltiple repeaters on my ham and all i get is radio silence. At this time, i see no point in getting the license.
Great information – Thank You! Have used ham radio (unlocked) for Search and Rescue and avalanche control. Looking to get a new radio and amatuer radio license. I also fly back country off airport and would like a radio to cover air frequencies. Using the Icom air radio as backup currently. Looking at Kenwood TH-D75A and Icom ID-52. Do you have suggestions? (My Aircraft radio is an Icom and very difficult to program) I do not lick to buy cheap as I rely on my equipment – Thanks Again!
Just watching this now. The testing thing…a pain for sure. GMRS, FRS, CB are all relatively low power. HAMs can run big power (2KW linear at my Dad's place) and if we don't properly ground, elevate, and restrict access to our antennas we can very easily kill someone that's a little too curious. A big component to the license aspect I would expect.
I'm new here and really appreciate your thorough explanation; I've learned so much. This information is especially valuable for me as a healthcare worker. I've gained a lot of knowledge about the differences in frequency radios. I'm now looking into buying my first Ham radio and am steadily learning more. I plan to take the test soon. Thank you again!
Been following your content. Prepping for my technician. How close is technician and general ? You mentioned taking both test.
Hey Josh, thank you for videos and teachings; truly appreciate it! I don't have my license yet but studying towards it.i guess I'm one of those who want to learn as much as possible before passing the exam. Or maybe I'm a bit lazy and want to score 80% or higher so I get access to all the frequencies right away. I'm in Canada. And only being able to listen is a good motivation for me to study. So far anyway. 73
As an older woman, I’ve had to learn nearly everything about radio on my own. Things seem better now, but the clubs weren’t that friendly to women back in the day. Trust me, it can be done, especially now that nearly everyone has access to the internet. ??
Man… I appreciate you, but feel so sorry that you felt the need to say “don’t let anyone make you feel bad” so many times.
I am totally new to this, but would like to be able to establish communication across 30-40 miles reliable, mostly in case of some type of natural disaster, so I can communicate with my family from work (assuming phones are down) is this the way to go? What would I need to accomplish this goal (like a check list?)
Thank you for any response and for your time.
