No. I ain't talking about the food either people here.

I'm talkin 'bout HAM... RADIO.

Anyone here a ham? I am a pending ham, just gotta get my license and rig set up. i got the moneys for the rig lined up, just gotta order the rig, get the license and power up!

    I am, but I've never been particularly active - I have enough expensive and time consuming hobbies. :)

    I'll probably play more when I get older.

    Why not just use a cell phone to talk to people. No long distance charges.

    idk, coz cell phones can’t broadcast and aren’t nuclear apocalypse-friendly

    You're assuming that our power grid would survive a nuclear apocalypse. Ham radios aren't run on a hamster wheel.

    But if the hamster wheel was hooked up a generator it could trickle charge a battery that could be used to convert DC to AC current to run a Ham radio. Just saying.......
