Description: The early days of radio were like the wild west. There were no rules, and that lack of rules often led to problems.Â
Eventually, frequency regulations were put into place, which left a large swatch of spectrum available to amateur radio operators.Â
Over time, these operators created a worldwide community that predated the internet by decades. It is still a community that exists today with thousands of people around the world.
