====== Welcome ====== ===== Why internet-connected amateur radio? ===== Some reasons for internet-connected amateur radio were presented in [[https://www.randomwire.us/i/164494144/the-importance-of-internet-connected-systems-for-amateur-radio-community-and-connections|The importance of internet-connected systems for amateur radio community and connections]]. Soon after, stories began emerging of clubs wanting to provide a remote station for their members who could not put up antennas or lived in retirement homes. It appears that internet-connected amateur radio ("ICAR") is a real trend. This site exists to help corral information about ICAR, with users contributing to help build and maintain this knowledge bank. Welcome to the **EtherHam wiki**. This space /* testing comment plugin */ will house technical content and links to more resources about internet-connected amateur radio. **This wiki is a work in progress.** Links displayed in ::::red:::: are planned pages that do not yet exist. * If you would like to contribute or have suggestions for this wiki, please contact the [[mailto:tsalzer@protonmail.com|wiki administrator]]. * General information, including news, reviews, and views, will be published at [[https://etherham.com]]. * See what has been done, and what remains to do, on the [[about:project|Project page]].
