Respond to the call of ham radio Despite its old-school reputation,
amateur radio is on the rise, and the airwaves are busier than
ever. That's no surprise: being a ham is a lot of fun, providing an
independent way to keep in touch with friends, family, and new
acquaintances around the world--and even beyond with its ability to
connect with the International Space Station! Hams are also good in
a crisis, keeping communications alive and crackling during extreme
weather events and loss of communications until regular systems
like cell phones and the internet are restored. Additionally, it's
enjoyable for good, old-fashioned tech geek reasons--fiddling with
circuits and bouncing signals off the ionosphere just happens to
give a lot of us a buzz! If one or more of these benefits is of
interest to you, then good news: the new edition of Ham Radio For
Dummies covers them all! In his signature friendly style, longtime
ham Ward Silver (Call Sign NOAX)--contributing editor with the
American Radio Relay League--patches you in on everything from
getting the right equipment and building your station (it doesn't
have to be expensive) to the intricacies of Morse code and Ohm's
law. In addition, he coaches you on how to prepare for the
FCC-mandated licensing exam and tunes you up for ultimate glory in
the ham radio hall of fame as a Radiosport competitor! With this
book, you'll learn to: Set up and organize your station Communicate
with people around the world Prep for and pass the FCC exam Tune
into the latest tech, such as digital mode operating Whether you're
looking to join a public service club or want the latest tips on
the cutting edge of ham technology, this is the perfect reference
for newbies and experts alike--and will keep you happily hamming it
up for years!
