About this episode

Jasmin shares his experiences and insights from a ham radio fair in Germany, discussing various aspects of amateur radio.

Jasmin went to a ham radio fair in Germany and returned with stories of antennas, radios, transceivers, cables, connectors, frequencies, and other objects that apparently deserve emotional attachment. In this episode, he bravely explains the mysteries of amateur radio while the rest of us pretend to understand, nod politely, and slowly lose the will to ask follow-up questions. Expect passion, technical details, questionable excitement about hardware, and enough antenna talk to make 3.5 MHz feel like a lifestyle choice. Somehow, it is informative. Unfortunately, it is also Jasmin.
