October GARA Meeting: Building a Hotspot

With the proliferation of cheaper digital handheld radios, it has become much more affordable for hams to connect through the internet to others around the world. However, the repeaters that used to be required to do this haven’t gotten cheaper. With the advent of “digital hotspots,” amateurs are now able to talk with other hams worldwide without needing to rely on a repeater at all. In this month’s GARA presentation by Scott Toth, ND4L, you’ll learn what to buy and how to build an inexpensive hotspot that will put all of your digital radios to use even when you’re not near a repeater.
