Show Notes (contains affiliate links): Tricking People Into Ham Radio

On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly

based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from

listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -

KN6NWZ, we talk about normalizing ham radio in 2024, tricking people into ham radio, using community sourced data and AI to improve disaster preparedness in Australia and the movie Red Dawn (1984).
