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.

Is FT8 a Game Now? FT8 Battle Night Brings PvP Energy to Ham Radio
Is FT8 a Game Now? FT8 Battle Night Brings PvP Energy to Ham Radio

Tonight on Live Free and Ham, we’re going all-in on FT8 Battle—the gamified FT8 platform that turns everyday digital-mode contacts into a competitive, scoreboard-driven challenge. We talk what makes FT8 Battle Night so addictive, how the “battle” format motivates more QSOs, and why gamification is bringing new energy to FT8 operating and community participation. Plus, we hit quick community updates (Discord, AllStar, Shack Roast) and read a few Winlink Wednesday check-ins to keep the weekly rhythm rolling.
