Getting lots of really good suggestions and approaches for how to steer someone who is interested in getting licensed when it comes to gear.

It feels like there is a flow chart coming. That first fork in the road: HF or Nah? is pretty defining for the gear, license requirements, etc.

Lots of food for thought.

Keep 'em coming!

Was talking with a friend who is interested in getting licensed. I was asked what radio they should look at.

Oof. Talk a bout a messy matrix of features and money. I'm trying to conjure an answer but if anyone out there knows of an article or blog post that is particularly instructive, I'd love to see it!
