Amateur (ham) radio operator and scanner enthusiast. Find me on the W7HEN repeater in Las Vegas. All views are my own.
I despise winter. Even Vegas winter is too cold for my liking

It seems there are a lot of hams from the UK on here. Had a good couple QSOs with the NW Allstar group on 53573. Also the South Coast Reflector here in the U.S has some good activity. I follow all ham radio accounts and zero political ones.

TikTok won't die. I'll bet you anything Android users will be able to manually download an apk and install. iPhone users will have web browser access either directly or via a vpn

Furthest was probably before I was even a ham. 200 miles on a FRS radio when the band was insane. Not bad for a half watt radio

My face when dealing with some radio operators. Being nice isn't hard

I've got the app. North Korea is fun though I prefer listening via SDR. Definitely get some exotic stations on there.

Oh I don't know. I love the sound and muality of Motorola but definitely need a VFO for all the scanning I do. Need to get an Anytone 578 as my 878 isn't cutting it anymore

Got the Star Trek reference immediately. Love it 🖖

There are quite a few hams on here but it seems very skewed towards the United Kingdom. I'm following just about all the accounts I can find but U.S. hams definitely seem to be the minority

I might just hear you if you get on Allstar or DMR somewhere. No HF here apart from regular RX via SDRs around the world

I agree. For me I much prefer talking. But I won't fault anyone who does prefer not talking

Same. Amateur radio, SWL and scanner posts.
