Dear Sir/Madam,
Amateur Radio is a community of people that
use Radio transmitters and receivers to communicate with other Amateur Radio
operators. The things that amateur radio operators do with their radios are as
diverse as the people themselves.
Amateur Radio operators are often called HAM Radio
Operators or simply “HAMs” (The origin of this nickname is for all practical
purpose lost. Although some people still speculate about, few agree and even
few care. Amateur Radio operators proudly call themselves HAMs and nobody knows
why). There are about 15000 HAM’s in India.
Amateur (HAM) Radio is both a hobby activity and service.
It is an activity of self learning, Inter-Communication & Technical
Investigation carried on the duly authorized persons (i.e. Amateur Radio
Operators) for a personal aim and without pecuniary interest. There are over 30
lakh people all over the world who pursue this activity in their free time.
Amateur
Radio Operators have to qualify in an examination conducted by Ministry of
Communication, Government of India and obtain license for operation /
processing a Radio Station.
Amateur
Radio Operators use their radio Stations and conduct two way communications and
exchange, cultural, personal, technical information with other amateurs not
only with in India but all over the world. The two way communications using
Radio Transmitters, receivers, antenna can be either through voice, Morse Code,
Digital (Video and Data) or through Satellite.
