Ham Radio?

Anyone into ham radio, CW, or Shortwave? I'mstarting to get into it and I still need to get my License.

I am a licensed Ham. I will not give out my call here because I would rather not link this screen name to my real info but, I live in the usa and i have a Technician class.

If you're interested i would look for your local branch of the AARL, or even just jump on amazon and look for a baofeng radio. I prefer a radio like a kenwood or a yeasu but, a baofeng will give you a dual band ht for less than 50 bucks, and you can't beat that!
