Ham Radio

I got my ham radio license a while back. My call sign is KC2UJK. Tonight was my first night talking on the radio. Kinda fun. I'm amazed how clear I could hear and talk to people miles away. I was only talking to these guys around the city, but I wouldn't have been able to do that with a regular walkie-talkie. I was using a Yaesu FT-60 HT with a repeater.

I remember that several Stakes here were training people to be Radio operators. I thought that it was an emergency preparedness thing.

Have you been involved with that?

Actually that is what it is for. I was talking with a counselor in the Stake Presidency.
