Foundations of Amateur Radio eBook

Six years in the making, after much prodding from fellow amateurs, the
transcripts of the weekly podcast '*Foundations of Amateur Radio*' are now
available as a series of eBook volumes on Amazon to bring together the over
300 different episodes covering topics about our amazing hobby. Short
discussions about hundreds of different topics outlining the thousand
different hobbies that amateur radio represents.

Starting in the wonderful hobby of Amateur or HAM Radio can be daunting.
Using low power with little experience is challenging but can be very
rewarding. Originally published as a weekly podcast, each volume contains a
year of edited audio podcast transcripts, each article looks at a different
aspect of the hobby, how you as a beginner might fit in and get the very
best from the hobby.

In these pages I outline many of the amazing attributes and activities that
a beginning or aspiring amateur can discover with the base level license -
in Australia the "Foundation" or "F-call" license.

My aim is to inspire and encourage new entrants into our community and to
rekindle the fire for old hams, to explore and experience all that we have
to offer without fear of failure. I share my own journey through this
experience and explain what I've learned along the way about the hobby, the
community, the science and technology.

In Volume 1 you'll be able to follow my initial journey through the
community, what to buy when you start, how to participate in the community,
things to practice, what the first steps look like once you have a license,
playing in radio contests, encouragement and sharing.
