In this episode of Live Free and Ham, Eric (N1JUR) and Todd (W1STJ) try to kick things off smoothly… which of course means Grouch’s PC explodes (metaphorically), the guest shows up muted, and nobody can remember the name of that gorgeous Vermont park.

They’re joined by Mike W4OPS from the National Amateur Radio Alliance to talk about “making better radio operators one member at a time” while swapping stories about confused Patreons who watch the livestream replay and wonder why the chat is dead, epic Parks on the Air activations, and why the phrase “these cats” somehow made it into an Apple Podcasts review.

If you love ham radio, a little bit of organized chaos, and a lot of community, this episode will resonate with you… just like a well-tuned antenna.
