Episode description
Ham radio. It's been around for 125 years, but most people know nothing about it. When disaster strikes, knocking out phones and the internet, ham radio still works. There are a million operators nationwide available to help transmit information during crises. Other times, they communicate around the globe, sometimes with Morse Code, and can even speak with astronauts aboard the International Space Station.
