A group of amateur radio operators have joined together to build a global community off the air. In the spirit of maintaining emergency communications and establishing new friendships, hams have started a streaming video conference that is open 24/7. Any licensed operator is invited to join the conference and connect with fellow hams.
While amateur radio is well known for providing reliable emergency communications during disasters and other times of need, it’s also about supporting and building friendships around the world. Amateur radio operators serve as goodwill ambassadors for their countries, and many have maintained on-the-air friendships that have lasted for decades.
The group is using Jitsi to connect. Interested hams should contact Murray (K3BEQ) at k3beq1234@gmail.com or Roger (KE8LCM) at r.radcliffwv@gmail.com for information on how to join.
Editor’s note: This group is separate from the off-air Eyeball QSO Party that was reported on earlier this week.
