Hey,
Do any of you guys know where I can get my hands on a used HAM raido at a cheap price so I can get into Amateur Raido. I am really intersted. Also, how do you study for your test?

Be careful buying used ham gear there are a lot of good deals to be had, but there are a lot of lemons as well. There are "hamfests" which are ham radio swapmeets in most major metro areas. You can find new and used gear at the hamfests.

For information regarding licensing and study materials check out: http://www.arrl.org

You can take practice tests online at: http://www.biochem.mcw.edu/Postdocs/Simon/radio/exam.html

Good luck!
