Riding bicycles, working on bicycles, travelling in a skoolie, writing code, looking at stars, listening to the radio waves, working on cars, you know…the normal stuff.

I got licensed because I like the “radio” part of ham radio.
Computers? Cool…hook them to radios.
Networking protocols? Cool, how can I use radios to build networks?
Packet radio? Still has radio involved.
All-star node? Great! It’s hooked into a dedicated radio.
Just got my first HF amplifier for my…you guessed it, HF radio.
OK I’m starting to sound like an ass. I don’t understand why anyone would go through the trouble to test and get licensed only to get involved with things that have…no radio?

I had to reqd that Wikipedia article to get the reference. I think I’m totally missing your point, though.

- Comment on Random question for today: Considering people who are not amateurs, if you wanted to create increased visibility and participation in amateur radio, what would you do? 2 years ago:
“every radio operator should also be willing to hang a sign which encourages passersby to come ask questions and engage”
I thought about this EXACTLY! We travel a good bit in our bus conversion. I’m working on building some semi permanent radio equipment in here. Often we find ourselves in parks and other natural areas, which I plan on setting up antennas for fun.
I was thinking that I should put up a little sign that says come talk about radios!
