Why or How did I get into Ham Radio? Ive been a prepper since y2k and I worked for Cellular One back in the day when we installed cell phones into vehicles. I worked for Motorola, and then for several radio stations locally as a disc jockey, Was an emt-i and firefighter and used radios back then too. Was a. Red Cross health and safety director. Always enjoyed radio stuff so ham radio was the next step.
