What are some of the things YOU can do in Amateur Radio?? How about:

• Communicating with people around the Front Range or all the way around the world
  
• Using orbiting satellites to speak with others, bouncing your signals off of the moon, or even reflecting your signals off of the vaporized contrails of meteors (seriously!)
  
• Preparing and participating in Emergency Communications to help your city during a disaster or chasing storms and providing on the spot info about severe weather
  
• Speaking with astronauts in the orbiting space shuttle or International Space Station, or literally developing the next generation of telecommunications methods and devices
  
• Sound interesting?
  

Take a look at a couple of videos on YouTube.com to see some of the acivities that are possible with Ham Radio:

• Various ham radio activities you can find during a 'Field Day':
  
  
  
  
• Amateur Radio presentation with Walter Cronkite (you'll see the Colorado Hayman fire and pictures from the Divide and Woodland Park area):
  
  
  
  
• Still Interested?
