The annual Ham Slam of the Highland Lakes Amateur Radio Club (HLARC) is coming up March 3,4 and 5.
Ham Slam is a licensing course and a way to learn about the local community of operators and the services they provide. Amateur radio, or ham radio, is a popular hobby that brings people, electronics and communication together. But in times of emergency, the ability to talk across town, around the world or even into space without the Internet or cell phones can become essential.
