How to Get Started in Amateur Radio
It's easy to
get started in Amateur Radio
Whether you want to experiment with leading edge technologies, help others keep in touch with family and friends, talk with the other side of the world, serve your community, or have a radio for emergency communications when the power goes out, it’s easy to get started in amateur radio. The best way to get started and learn is to listen to amateurs on the radio bands, read about Amateur Radio, or best of all, meet and speak with radio amateurs in your area.
xBeacon
is a youth-led program dedicated to the study and
exploration of amateur radio, radio science and space
research. We are located in the
