I have never seen a ham radio hooked up to a computer, shows how much I know about that stuff. I thought the point of ham radios was so you could still keep in touch when the last microchip goes down. I had a ham radio in my truck but I never could get the dam thing to work.

So your a Ham.. So am I since 1987. Still a Novice yes I'm a procrastinator : ). A ham who owned an old bicycle shop in Palm Springs Ca got me hooked in 87. He gave me good condition Kenwood 599 Twins which I used for five years until I saved up for a used 820 then on to a used TS440 which I still use today. I have a used Uniden 2510 in my truck which might have melted in the 112F heat we've had this week lol. I've also been a photographer since the early 70's. I really like your videos dsarti1.

If the electrical grid goes down around the world....all of this equipment will become useless. Solar flares could fry all this stuff in theory. I think I'll spend my money on food and water storage instead. In a SHTF world what good will it do me to talk to someone who is 1000 miles from where I am. In a SHTF world your time is extremely valuable and you need to use it in the areas of foraging, defense, trapping, and working your ass of...no time for this radio stuff.

@yonny1954 Get started by buying a Shortwave radio and just listen and learn the hobby and see if it's your thing. Worse case scenario, you don't like the hobby and you can sell the radio and not lose a dollar.

Great job Dave!! I had told you a while back that you should get into SW radio, you're taking it a step further. Now, all we have to do is get you a SW Receiver at your home and you can do vids on that also - it would get you a whole lot of new viewers for sure.:-) Five Stars Dave!

Will this be the way we will broadcast and receive news when there is an emergency TV, radio and internet blackout?

how do i get a ham license this looks like fun
Great video. Thanks for taking interest and posting this vid. It's a great way to introduce folks to ham radio. I've been a ham for 17 years. I spent most of the day today operating here on my station in the Field Day event. By the way, I'm also in the poverty bunch. Hillbilly, you need to get your ticket soon. Thanks.
