Just curious if anyone out here in the Poalverse has desires, current experience, current use, etc - of anything having to do with HAM radio and all that.

Might be a useful and productive endeavor to combine like minded with legacy tech.

I got the Baofeng uv5 -https://www.amazon.com/s?k=baofeng+uv-5r&crid=2U9FFLD6XFPET&sprefix=bauf%2Caps%2C232&ref=nb_sb_ss_sc_1_4 For $30 it's a great intro to ham. A ham elmer gave me a J pole for free. I think I spent <$50 on the cable.

It definitely got me into ham, but for now I'm just going to wait until I'm either ready to shell out more money or I find a good deal somewhere.
