Default For the newbie, a FAQ, "What is _REAL_ Ham Radio?"

...

The amount of AM being used on 80m is also a very encouraging sign;
seemingly contacts can be had at almost any time, and on any
phone-section frequency. Special nets need not be used to get
contacts, if the onservations of my tuning around are typical.


Where do these occur? I'd like to listen in- or maybe even join in.

I do join an AM net on 160m from time to time (school holidays, it may get
noticed if I set up a shack in the back of the class room- although I know
of one teacher who did just that!).
