What is something like a hobby or skill that you belive almost anybody should give a try, and what makes your suggestion so good compared to other things?

i feel like this is a descent question i guess.

    Can confirm. Resources are downright obscenely easy to get hold of especially for getting a tech license. Ditto radios. From el cheapo baofeng to something still cheap but nicer is anywhere from a half to quarter the price of the htx202 I learned on in the 90’s, and getting resources on repeaters is also shockingly comprehensive (I had gotten a little red book with bible print sized text with listings.)

    Getting into HF is a bit more involved ditto specialty modes, but it is genuinely interesting and worthy of looking at even if you decide to not dive in.
