[QUOTE="2400, post: 218921, member: 3254"] There are quite a few different things you can do with Ham radio. Yesterday we had a small fire with dry, dry, dry conditions and a high wind that threatened to turn it into a real wildfire. Since my volunteer fire dept won't let me be an engineer due to my broken foot I found something else to do. I did communication between 5 different agencies (vol depts, city, county, state and fed) and with our local ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Service) network on my Ham radio. I had fun and learned a lot too. In addition to that kind of stuff, when your cell is dead or has no signal you can always get out with your radio, we plan to use them camping and hunting to talk with each other, you can use it on the road while you're traveling, in an emergency for help, to talk to someone in the next town or across the world, so there are all kinds of things you can use them for.
