Are you considering becoming a Ham Operator?
Becoming a Ham Operator has several advantages, such as:
-
Emergency Communications: During natural disasters or emergencies, amateur radio operators can provide communication when traditional communication methods are down.
-
Technology: It is a great way to get hands-on experience with radio and communication technology.
-
Ham radio operators can join clubs or groups where they can meet like-minded people and participate in events and contests.
-
Personal Development: It also builds skills such as communication, problem-solving, and technical expertise.
Amateur Radio is an exciting hobby that continues to grow in popularity. It provides opportunities for personal growth, education, and building relationships with people all over the world.
Join the Massillon Amateur Radio Club on the first Friday of each month for our monthly get together! And for more information about our club visit our Facebook page or email:
