Remote Control Cars Inside Out
Radio Orienting contest: this is a severely restricted game played in compact areas. Very large technical skill is required to play this game.
Another form of bunny hunting utilizes vehicular transportation over long distances. The hams travel in the vehicles to the required region and locate the transmitter. Whoever can find the transmitter and reach the end line first is the winner. In another, the person who finds a specific number of hidden transmitters from different places first, wins. For this, traveling skill, equipment efficiency and orientation skill should be good.
These events are referred to as ARDF contest, abbreviation for Amateur Radio Direction Finding Contests. Radio sports and contests are only one side of the hobby. It is not necessary to enter contests. However many people get obsessed with this and start collecting dozens of winning certificates. At the other end of the curve are people who use the ham for their own communication and satisfaction.
One significant thing that can't go without mention is that hams often contact space stations. There are many astronauts who become licensed radio operators and utilize the radio for educational and emergency purposes.
Once spanning just a small region within a given radius, the ham has now penetrated even space. Initially only based on Morse code, this has evolved into variations including digital transmission, voice etc. Radio transmission has indeed changed a lot in the recent years.
