Just got my first ham radio

submitted by PawpawMan to whatever 2.5 yearsNov 8, 2021 11:39:32 ago (+35/-0)     (whatever)

I've seen talk about hams on here before so figured someone could help. I'm having trouble finding any signals so I already ordered the na-771 antenna upgrade, why what I'm really interested is how to set up my own that I can run up a 50ft tree. I'd like it to be DIY and cheap as possible.

Forgot to mention the radio is a baofeng uv-5r

I made a ham radio once. It really started to stink after a couple weeks, so beware.
