You should check out Ham Radio Crash Cpurse on YouTube. Lots of great info there.

Most activity, I've seen here: [email protected] but there's a lemmy bug that's not showing a bunch of posts. That should be resolved soon.

These are good cheaper radios (The price has gone up a bit)

They are fine for starting out with, but you'll probably want to upgrade soon. There are better radios for around $75 if you can afford it.

Ham radio! It's relaxing. My favorite activity is to take my portable gear to parks and operate Parks on the Air.
