Podcasts by Essex Ham Amateur Radio Podcast
Essex Ham promotes the hobby of amateur radio in Essex. Our team is often out and about in England looking at the various different aspects of the ham radio hobby, and we release occasional video and audio recordings featuring some of the things that we have discovered in our travels. The audio and video that we release are not podcasts in the traditional sense, but this feed is here for those looking to get our latest content automatically. Follow our media feed to get latest updates from the Essex Ham team in the UK. More at https://www.essexham.co.uk
