Comment on What Can We Do to Get Youth into Ham Radio?
easily3667@lemmus.org 1 week agoAgreed, but OP is asking how you convince people (ie it’s not ok if it’s not for you).
But that’s good to know there are more approachable things to learn.

I guess that’s fair. My “it’s ok if it’s not for you” was more of a specific platitude for him because we’d already discussed some of the options available, and he’s already put some effort in and decided it wasn’t for him 🤷♂️
I agree we need to entice more people, I don’t have a good answer as to how. If someone looks into it, and makes an informed decision, then I’m not going to twist their arm.
One thing I’ve tried with my friends kids is to take them out and do POTA in the woods, let them run a pileup. They really seem to enjoy it, enough to stay studying, but not enough to follow through. What can you do? 🤷♂️
