Hi everybody, I just recently discovered HAM radio. I haven't gotten my license yet but I'm studying for it. Meanwhile, I've been doing some research as to setting up my base station. My goal is to be able to transmit and receive on VHF and UHF bands, and HF would also be great but is not necessary. As I did my research, I realized that there are many routes to my goal, but the ones I've found are very expensive. I am looking for something under 300 dollars, preferably 200, including antenna, transceiver, coax, key, microphone and anything else that is necessary. It would be great if any of y

So you've got the Radio bug? Want to learn more? http://www.hamtests.co.uk Covers both exams in USA and UK, tutorials and practise papers, so you can acquire a HAM license.

I think this is useful for all those budding Hack-RF users out there!

In other words, how is frequency driven the pineapple and how could it be hacked Thus for a simple reason : The output power of the Pineapple is perfect for what I intend to do, but I need to change it's working frequency far lower than the first channel. To avoid answers "out of the subject" (concerning FCC regulation and other things like that), I should precise that t
