WikiProject Amateur radio

Shortcuts

WikiProject Amateur radio is a WikiProject that aims to improve Wikipedia's coverage of amateur radio. Its goals are the improvement of Wikipedia articles related to amateur radio, maintenance of the amateur radio category and its sub-categories, and production and maintenance of templates for amateur radio–related topic identification.

Project members should ensure that articles are referenced and written from a neutral point of view—amateur radio operators should resist the urge to resort to boosterism or to write articles from a local or personal point of view.

Please help this project evolve by providing your own modifications, comments and suggestions. (Don't know where to start? Leave a message on the project talk page.)

26 March 2023 Hi everyone, I've been creating articles about DX-peditions, if anyone has some offline sources please let me know! Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 08:54, 26 March 2023 (UTC) Recently created DXpedition articles.[reply]

12 August 2022 Hi all, this WikiProject looks pretty dead so I'm going to try my best to revive it. I've started adding articles covering radios (IC-705 and FT-891). I have a few goals that I think would help improve the coverage of amateur radio.

  • Write out propper articles for SOTA/POTA/IOTA.
  • Create articles that cover most modern radios.
  • Increase coverage about DX-peditions

Next week I'm going to start working on reaching to people who are still active on WikiPedia and see if they're interested in working together on some of these articles. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 05:36, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
