Amateur radio, also known as “ham radio”, is a hobby about experimenting and communicating using not only radio, but a range of technologies including satellites, the internet and even beams of light!
In New Zealand hams are licensed by the Radio Radio Spectrum Management (RSM). Once licensed, an amateur can operate two-way radio equipment from home, from vehicles and from anywhere in New Zealand and in many cases when overseas too.
Bands of radio frequencies have been set aside for amateur radio use and they allow hams to communicate across town or around the world. The scope and possibilities are endless from sending TV pictures and operating through amateur radio satellites to just having a quiet chat with friends at a distance.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
