  • @Rachel22d It's not about being useful or not. Most ham enthusiasts just do it for the fun of operating one. Don't you think it amazing that you can talk to someone halfway across the world with your own radio equipment?

  • what a plonker.

  • You wanted his call for the log? The log cares about calls?

  • i dont even have a license yet and i dont find this useful at all

  • far out man

  • @bemace lol at first it looked funny, but now i quite like it.... It is like watching stoner trying to explain something :D

  • No, no, no dipshit. You indicate who you are talking to FIRST, then identify yourself. THAT is the proper QSO protocol.

  • @ralfytm First of, do the test and get a callsign. Meanwhile buy or borrow a receiver to listen to ham-traffic. When you get your callsign buy a cheap RX/TX, 1980's icom or so... and cq away!

  • @bemace God how true and funny!! We should shorten the name and just make it "spert" village... As most of the kind folks posting video's, while well meaning, are merely "sperts"...
