I heard an advertisement on the radio yesterday promoting ham radio.
The ad pointed out the reliability of ham radio during emergencies
when other communications failed, the history of ham radio, and the
fact that the Morse code requirement had been dropped. It also listed
an Internet site to help one get started in ham radio.

Does anyone else know anything about this? Like most radio
commercials, I didn't get a chance to write down the site, but I will
keep listening and try to write it down the next time. This is
something that I'd be interested in supporting.
