 I'm working on the technical article for the upcoming issue. The issue has a 1960s, groovy theme. So, I'm doing an article on radio.

Radio is one of those things that can get very technical and complex. But I'm hoping to explain it in a very approachable, intuitive way.

I see for example a lot of the interest in meshtastic and reticulum, which is great! But I feel the struggle sometimes to resonate with the core ideas. For example, why does this antenna work here and not there. Why can I hear you now but not later etc...

So hopefully what I'm preparing can help with some of that. And as always, a fun interactive exercise.
