Amateur Radio is the hobby of using designated Frequency bands to communicate with other licensed Radio Amateurs around the world. This can be for experimentation, training, or just a good chat with someone thousands of miles away! Amateur Radio also provides a service, aiding emergency services with communication networks whenever need arises.
