Full disclosure: ham radio isn’t for everyone, and there are many different facets to it. What appeals to one person might bore another to death. One area of ham radio that has changed a lot …
Another person here, I was born 1982, and definitely know what ham radio is and have used such equipment. But I had a pretty nerdy grandfather who infected me with his tech curiosity and introduced me to it. Sometimes I still break out a little shortwave radio with SSB and hook it up to my laptop to see everyone’s messages flying back and forth. I like to screw around with SDRs too (and of course I own a Flipper Zero 😉).
My 12 year old son knows next to nothing about it.
