In this episode, we are discussing how to attract more women in ham radio. Women can play a great role as Ham Radio Operators and can enjoy the hobby just as much as anyone. Being that it is relatively easy to get licensed, it is time to step up and bring more women into the hobby and have them contribute their knowledge, participation and expertise in the art of ham radio. We have a special guest in the studio for this episode! Don't miss it!

In 2021, I did a show on my choices for the best HT hand held ham radios at that time. Since then, radios that were available then, are no longer around now and there have been some price changes. With that, what are my updated choices for 2022-2023? Check out the video to find out more! As always I have ranked the radios by price and am only showing radios that are a good quality and worth your time and money.
Always do your own research and find the best prices for any radio purchase. These are my suggestions, but they are not necessarily listed at the most competitive prices out there!
