HAM RADIO CLUB
AMARAD
INTRODUCTION
Amateur radio is a hobby and, by laws, completely non-commercial. Individual amateur "ham" radio
operators pursue the avocation for personal pleasure through building their own radio stations and
communicating with their fellows globally and for self-improvement via study and practice of
electronics, computers, and radio/TV wave behaviour. Radio amateurs are, thus, "amateurs" in the true
sense of the word: pursuit of an activity only for the love of it. Radio amateurs cannot broadcast nor
transmit music and other general public entertainment programming. The amateur radio use of the air
waves is for personal satisfaction and for forwarding the "state of the art" of electronics and
communication techniques. Amateur radio operations can be detected in designated bands throughout
the radio spectrum, using a variety of modulation methods including Morse code, voice
and digital modes, and image modes such as television and facsimile.
