Heh. I'm 46. My ticket expired about fifteen years ago as there was no way to renew it as I live in a foriegn country. I suppose I could get a British license... which I looked into when I wanted to fly balloons to the edge of space.

Unfortunately, in the UK, it's against regs to operate a HAM radio on an "aircraft" and a weather balloon qualifies as an aircraft.

I was going to just break the law and use a modified PMR radio. I figurered if it was thousands of feet over head, you'd need very little power for it to be heard for a very long distance. RL keeps getting in the way though.

37 here. Mid-generation? I'm only into it theoretically yet, though. I have yet to get my license and hardware.

How old are all of you? I'm curious if the new generation is into ham radio.. ATL ALL.

And you're asking this question on a BBS?

My 15 year old nephew is a ham, but he's not a BBS user. For a better answer to this question ask on /r/amateurradio

radio.. ATL ALL.

What does my age have to do with my interest in ham radio?

I'm confused ;-(

I'm 32 as well. Only became licensed last year, should have done it years ago. Better late than never I suppose!
