Welcome to our Videos of Interest page! As we discover videos that may be useful, inspiring, or just plain fun for amateur radio enthusiasts, we’ll share them here — whether they’re hosted on YouTube or elsewhere. If we produce a video ourselves, you’ll find it on our YouTube channel and linked right here.
One of our latest additions explores the worldwide P-25 Network Exchange, a revitalized digital mode once popular with public service agencies. Thanks to evolving technology, these radios are now more accessible to hobbyists — offering new opportunities for experimentation and global connectivity.
You’ll also find videos from Dave Casler, a well-known figure in the ham radio community. Dave offers instructional content, license prep classes, and updates on current events in the hobby. We previously hosted a full page of his videos, but some links have gone missing — we may refresh that section soon. Or not. Truth is, once you click on one of Dave’s videos, you’ll open a whole Pandora’s Box of knowledge and entertainment that could keep you busy (and learning) for years.
Thanks for watching, and thanks for visiting W9JCA.COM — your hub for club news, resources, and radio camaraderie.
