should be no problem as long as you abide by the conditions of that license..............

Exactly Amateur radio is not is not social welfare ,some just want it all for free and all privileges with out time effort or money.....no doubt there are lots of hobbies we all would like to do but we can not afford them .............

This hobby is very accessible , there are 3 levels of license , and not expensive compared to smart phones ,pads ,laptops home computers and the monthly plans to access them, I can not believe the cost of the exam and a license is stopping anyone. As for time and effort You Beauty!!! the youth may e...

Hello VK2TJF, I think your doing fine , its hard for anyone to write down 25wpm , its time to just be reading it in your head .At this speed if you are copying most of it you are ready to be on air making qso's which is the best practice of all .I used the on air method just reading other qso's and ...

forget the programs if you can read up to 30 wpm i think you should get on air any band and start having fun ,the sending will sort it self out.

As for a35rk being under layers of eastern state stn's all the time,i don't think so.I have heard paul calling cq many times over a period with no replys.

Paul are you saying you dont want dupes ? I have duped you a few times,not to make sure i'm in the log but to say hello and let you know that your signal is being heard.This is 50mhz,only so many op's if we only worked every one once we all would hardly make a contact.I believe if some one is activa...
