Ham – continued…

In the book 9 Years on the 7 Seas which I am currently reading the author writes of her experience with the below-mentioned Ham radios:

“What a moral support these ham nets are! With an amateur licence and a short-wave radio on board, you are never alone. Help is only a phone call away, which is an enormous relief at sea, far away from civilization.”

We had better get busy! I think we may need this and more though! 🙂
