First one is …
First one is getting a station on the air so you can talk to stations more than 10 miles away. Second one is working DX (or stations outside the US borders). Third is using local repeaters to make friends in and around you home town or when you travel around the country. Third is being able to build and or repair your own transmitters, receivers, and station accessories. Fourth is working with local disaster agencies to help your community.
Couldn’t have written it better myself!

Hey Mr. Rogers, did you clip your fingernails?
Why did you say “We are QRT and seventythree’s”? I only saw one person in your video…so who is “WE”.

HIHI, Fine Business, Seventy thirds, I am QRT at the HOME QTH and soon will be destinating to my destination wherefore I will then be destinated.

That is a LID-r-rific video… totally Lid-tastic. What other garbage are you going to produce to give Amateur Radio a bad name.

You are an abomination to the hobby!
