Title: Ham Radio Spectrum Defense & The End of NOAA APT Era

Is amateur radio spectrum under siege? James (K8JKU), Jim (N8JRD), and Rory (W8KNX) tackle the controversial FCC experimental license granted to AST SpaceMobile that threatens our 70cm amateur band.

This episode covers the growing concern over spectrum encroachment, what the ARRL is doing to defend our frequencies, and why every ham needs to contact their representatives. We also discuss Jim's hands-on experience with the Flex 6400 ATU and bid farewell to the legendary NOAA-15 and NOAA-19 satellites.

Topics: Spectrum defense, FCC policy, emergency communications, amateur radio advocacy, satellite operations, and the importance of congressional outreach for protecting our hobby.
