WoadWarrior there are also what they call digital modes of HAM radio. Those are computer/text chat only modes. One I use is called psk31 mode and I can text chat with people all over the world using my computer, my HAM radio, a simple wire antenna, and 100 watts or less of power. It's very cool. In the USA you need the general license to get out across the ocean. For starters I highly recommend the 1st level class called technician. With that u can still get out all over the world using other HAM tools such as the free program called Echolink or another Internet
