Did Everyone Forget Ham Radio Is A Service?

Show Notes (contains affiliate links): Did Everyone Forget Ham Radio Is A Service?

 

On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly

based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from

listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -

KN6NWZ, we talk about VHF/UHF in the car, how we remind people that ham radio is a service and the Preparedness Executive Order.
