highly recommended

Great podcast built around ham radio with some preparedness content as well. So nice to have a drive time listening option that is entertaining and informative.

entertaining but some incorrect facts

I enjoy listening to HRCC and have listened starting in early 2023. Great content but some incorrect facts. In this episode, Josh mentions Mount Whitney as the tallest mountain in the continental US. Mount Denali is the tallest mountain in the continental US because Alaska is still part of the continent. Mount Whitney is the tallest mountain in the contiguous US.
