Okay, to land on this page you must have a fleeting interest or even a curiosity as to what this thing called Amateur Radio is all about and I get
that.
Suffice is it to say that Amateur Radio allows an operator to talk to other Amateurs (Hams) All over the world, but it’s way more than that, the
world is your technical oyster once you become licenced. There are so many aspects to Amateur Radio that I cannot actually list them all here,
We get our licence by taking a short exam, which to be honest isn’t difficult if you have an active interest in radio, then we find our own niche’s.
My own personal interest is propagation, the very thing that makes Amateur Radio distant transmissions (DX) work.
So that’s just me and my way of doing things, there’s a world of things you can do like, Build your own radio (and use it on the air), whilst on
the subject of building things, you can also build your own antenna’s and use them too.
Click the picture to see the big
picture (quite literally) Amateur
Radio is another lifestyle, once
you’re hooked you’re hooked for
good.
In the poster you see Tim Peake,
yes he did school contacts from the
ISS using amateur radio, when I say
amateur radio is out of this world you
know that is quite true.
Satellites and ISS are open to you if
you take and pass the Foundation
licence exam More? Click Here.

I mentioned talk to the world didn’t I?
Well you can, I remember when I
used CB and spoke to Bexleyheath
(yes just 5 miles away) using 5
watts. Remember my first contact on
Amateur Radio, 5 Watts into
Bulgaria.
Remember Satellites too? All
available for you to explore, the only
thing you’re missing so far is a
licence. So get in on the act, you’ll
love it believe me.
Take a look at this leaflet as it is
quite informative, it has helpful
information on different aspects of
Amateur Radio also RSGB contact
details, give them a call, they could
give you information regarding
nearby clubs that would also help
you. I started of at Chelmsford
Amateur Radio Society, they really
helped me.
We would be so happy if you joined
us and I know, if you have the
interest, you would be happy too, as
Spock would say, “Facinating”
Well there you go, if you like what you have read then join us, why not take the
