Railfan Technology > Amateur RadioDate: 04/26/19 08:07 Amateur Radio Author: jlcKS I am going to get my Ham Licenses soon, Technician and General, and was wondering if there are any Railfan related ham groups? I searched on the ARRL sight but did not come across anything.
Thank you in advance. Date: 04/26/19 09:07 Re: Amateur Radio Author: K3HX OM,
You will find many ham operators on this forum. 73 Tim Colbert K3HX Date: 04/26/19 10:06 Re: Amateur Radio Author: sptno Lot's of hams here on this site.
Congratulations on working on getting your license! Pat WA5VRO Austin, TX Date: 04/26/19 22:10 Re: Amateur Radio Author: wa4umr I'm another one.

Date: 04/27/19 06:09 Re: Amateur Radio Author: Frisco1522 I was one since the early 70s, WB0ECM. I forgot about renewing my license which expired in 2016. I haven't been active. I guess I would have to start from ground zero to get my General class back.

Welcome. Dale KA8KOD Date: 04/29/19 04:23 Re: Amateur Radio Author: tomcough Good for you!

Mark Bess, Omaha, NE Date: 04/29/19 12:30 Re: Amateur Radio Author: mojaveflyer 29 years of being a ham operator. Our Sunday Night Scanner In Denver does cover listening to railroads. I'm one of the net controllers and I specialize in aircraft and railroad monitoring. We meet on the linked repeaters in Boulder (CO) 145.46 MHzand 145.16 MHz in Colorado Springs. We meet on the air Sunday nights at 8 pm local time. I'm N0LBH...

Think there were/are some identified frequencies on 2 meters for railfan talk-around, not sure how active they are. Rick Somers Kilo Kilo 6 Echo Lima Redding CA Date: 04/29/19 17:32 Re: Amateur Radio Author: SouthWestRailCams Congrats on getting your HAM License! I have been studing and reading into HAM Tech License for the 6 months and have a few friends that are HAMs as well. Can't wait to get through the test and then get my license.
