Yah I was just ... ( 2 months ago by Tm30w06)
Yah I was just reading that myself and was thinking at the worst these folks are using their own radios and resources in an official and organised capacity under supervision and their talents are greatly appreciated and used. Southern California Catalina Island Fire used Hams to communicate all over the island...It was on the news. " Funny fellow " these people are not CB'ers. When you see someone make fun of something that is seen as a good thing it does make you question the motivation !
"Funnyfellowhaha" ... ( 2 months ago by even200x)
"Funnyfellowhaha" you are completely out of touch. If you take the time to look, you will find the majority of Hams are engineers, and have very high tech jobs.

funnyfellowhahaha, ... ( 1 month ago by tsolorio3001)
funnyfellowhahaha, I'd like to see you put down hams after one is responsible for sending help to save your tail in an emergency. Hams are very intelligent people and definitely know how to spell, avoid run on sentences and use correct punctuation. In case you don't know what punctuation is you can get a book called a dictionary and look it up.

about the only emergency you get in america is when you run out of cheeseburgers or someone is so fat they get stuck in their house!
I guess you didn't ... ( 1 month ago by tsolorio3001)
I guess you didn't hear about Katrina then. Not sure where you were when that happened. If you can't consider that to be an emergency then some is very wrong with you. But something has occurred to me... I'm guessing you about 7 or 8 years old maybe middle school age. Did your mommy buy you a 'puter to harass people with?
actually I am 9 ... ( 1 month ago by funnyfellowhahaha)
actually I am 9 years old. It's a free country so if I think ham radio is a load of shit and you don't then we will have to agree to differ won't we...
Why are you people ... ( 1 month ago by romka4567)
Why are you people arguing with a bloody 9yr old.....Sure he is immature and slightly intelligent and does not know that during 9/11 and Katrina and during major tornadoes people use this stuff to stay connected but it's ok he will learn

funnyfellowhahaha is a young foolish child who is ungrateful and doesnt relize truth when he sees it. i remember when i was nine years old i saw truth when Pres Reagan kept our country from being beat in the cold war.
"i'm only nine years old" in no excuse for behaivior.

being 9 is no excuse to be so rude. first if you don't think ham radio is anything way even comment on one of the videos. I'm only 20 and i've been a ham for years i've seen firsthand how important it is, we had bad flooding here and the first hams out there were honestly in boats going to set set up a station in the area.
kc0wij why don't ... ( 1 month ago by funnyfellowhahaha)
kc0wij why don't you stop messing about with ham and get some real friends in the real world. Then perhaps you could find a way to deal with your bitterness. I will pray for you.

these guys are really great! anyone who suggests that they are just lonely busybodies sticking their beaks in where they are not wanted just so they can act all hoity-toity like they are heroes or something needs to think again IMHO

this looks cool...I'm gonna get me a ham set and join in the fun.
Technically yes you ... ( 1 day ago by utterfanny)
Technically yes you do need a license. But you can just make up a callsign and do it anyway. Once you have saved a few lives with your radio skills no one is going to quibble about whether you have a license or not. Also if anyone who actually has a license gets all snooty about it on air and tries to pull you up you can suggest that they simply 'f**k off* and make up a new callsign and put on a funny voice...problem solved.
