Operators, called hams, use various radio equipment to communicate locally, nationally, and globally, employing voice, CW code, digital modes, and other techniques. Beyond its recreational aspect, amateur radio serves as a vital emergency communication resource during disasters, promotes technical learning and innovation, and fosters a community of enthusiasts worldwide.
