Talk:Amateur radio

Rational for breaking pages into many sections
To put all the information about Amateur radio on one page is unpractical the page would be massive. I made this page to be page is get to a different page Nextext 17:05, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
 * You can make this page as general and than other information place as sub pages: /example.--Juan de Vojníkov 17:27, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Operating on popular amateur bands
I'm considering taking the "Operating on popular amateur bands" and removing the 10 listed bands and changing it to two sections: VHF and HF. More can be added later. Having the 10 bands with the same two pieces of info. seems to be really redundant. J3gum 07:35, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Entire Amateur Radio Page
The description of Amateur Radio has been been done before, and done much better at Wikipedia. I think we need to take a step back and figure out what is to be accomplished by this article. We need an intro. section for the purpose of this article. I don't think it should be another description of Ham Radio. It needs to be specifics about Ham Radio topics. The Licensing section isn't a bad start. How to study, where to find out where to test, groups that can help perhaps. I think a section on how to create your first station would be golden. I'd love to hear some discussion. J3gum 07:12, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Absolutely true. If this is the level of quality that is acceptable for starting an article on WV, then we may as well seed this project with 100,000 courses worth of topic outlines from sets of B-level and higher quality articles on Wikipedia, with automatically-generated links to the detailed source material there.  I cleaned up the subpage structure here because it was broken out into 20 pages with no useful content, but the more dire issue is that this remains simply a description, without any thought given to how to teach the subject... which doesn't seem like what WV should be for. –SJ + > 09:01, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
