Episode notes
Live Free and Ham goes international! 🇺🇸🌍
In this special episode, Eric, Todd, and Paul join the crew of the European Ham Radio Show to talk about how Live Free and Ham got started—and how it somehow turned into one of the most recognizable voices in the ham radio community.
What starts as a simple conversation quickly turns into a full-on ham radio roundtable… and yeah, it goes off the rails (in the best way possible).
We dive into:

The rise of Parks on the Air (POTA) and why it hooks so many operators
The 146.52 / 2-meter simplex challenge and getting people back on the air
Differences between the U.S. and European ham radio scenes
Wild operating stories—from pileups to DX surprises
And then… it gets weird:
Ham radio + skydiving  ...Â
