Who Uses This Site
Road-Tripping Hams
Operators driving to Hamvention, HamCation, SeaPac, and regional hamfests. They use the Highway Finder before departure to program repeaters for the drive.
Active Equipment Buyers
Hams using the Radio Field Reference guide are actively learning to program new radios — Baofeng, Yaesu, Anytone, Kenwood, Icom. They are in the purchase decision window.
Scenic Route Travelers
Hams driving the Blue Ridge Parkway, Glacier NP, Yellowstone, Great Smoky Mountains, and other scenic corridors — typically leisure travelers with discretionary income.
Hamfest Attendees
The Hamfest Directory is used by hams planning convention travel — the exact moment when equipment purchases are being planned and budgeted.
CHIRP Users
The Highway Finder's CHIRP CSV export sends users directly to CHIRP to program their radios — connecting your ad to a moment of active radio use.
New and Upgrading Licensees
The Radio Field Reference guide is used by newly licensed hams and operators upgrading from HT to mobile — prime targets for entry-level and mid-range equipment.
