Is amateur radio really dying? In this video, I react to the viral "What Happened to Ham Radio?" documentary and break down the real FCC and ARRL license data showing strong growth from the 1970s to over 700,000 US hams today. I address the exaggerations about the "golden age," highlight active communities, Field Day, Parks on the Air, emergency comms, and why the hobby remains thriving. Perfect for new and experienced hams — get on the air and join the fun!
