Welcome to Live Free & Ham

Hello there! Thank you for visiting us. We are Eric (N1JUR), Paul (N1OG), Ryan (W1SNH), and Todd (W1STJ), hosts of the Live Free and Ham Podcast.

We are all from the beautiful State of New Hampshire, where we share our enthusiasm for the Amateur Radio hobby. Our podcast, which airs bi-weekly, covers various topics that we're sure you'll find interesting.

Our podcast explores various aspects of the hobby, and we adapt our show format depending on the topic. We're keen on collaborating with other local hams in New England and the NorthEast to help bring Amateur Radio to the forefront!

Please do not hesitate to let us know how we can help. We highly recommend subscribing to ensure you are part of the LFH Community.

Grouch Goes to Hamcation: Radios, Rooftop Tents, Questionable Life Choices

Hamcation wasn’t just a hamfest… it was a full-blown radio road trip.

In this episode of Live Free and Ham, Grouch shares the behind-the-scenes stories from Hamcation — from hallway conversations and gear temptation to APRS pranks that may or may not have broken the internet (or at least someone’s ego).

We dig into:

What Hamcation is really like once the cameras stop rolling

The APRS chaos that had people talking

Honest talk about new radios, mobile rigs, and whether manufacturers are actually listening

Service dog moments that turned heads (and changed the tone)

POTA activations before and after the event
