    Careers begin with Ham Radio


Getting an amateur radio license is the first step towards many career 
opportunities in the communications industry, from engineering UAVs, 
integrating Wi-Fi on the Amazon Kindle, to creating 4G cell phone 
networks, to designing communication subsystems on DirecTV satellites. 
CPARC members are regularly learning about radios through retuning 
filters on radios, building directional antennas for transmitter hunts, 
and putting together an emergency vehicle tracking network for the 
Wildflower Triathlon using two dozen radios and GPS units, digital 
repeaters, and internet gateways.
