I decided to join a radio club to meet more hams and make some contacts with similar interests. There are several in my area (Metrowest Massachusetts). I chose the Minuteman Repeater Association. They have a network of repeaters across the state and seem to have an active membership. I’m hoping to find some folks with common interests that I can rag-chew with during my morning commute. I’ve been listening to a couple of groups of hams chewing it up on my way into work but haven’t wanted to cut in as an outsider. I’m hoping to change that by actually meeting some of the people I hear while driving around.
