About HamPost

HamPost is an independent publication about amateur radio — what to operate, how to operate it well, and why it matters.

We cover three things and try to do them properly: honest gear reviews, plain-spoken guides, and a structured database of manufacturers, series, and models. No hype, no affiliate-driven scoring, no filler.

What we publish

• Reviews. Hands-on evaluations with a consistent scoring method. When we score a rig, we tell you how we got there.
• Guides. Evergreen, people-first explainers — from getting licensed and antennas to propagation, digital modes, and operating.
• The database. A reference of manufacturers, series, and models you can actually navigate.
• Shack Stories. A community space where operators share the moments behind every contact.

How we stay independent

Our editorial judgment is not for sale. We do not accept payment in exchange for a favorable review or a higher score. Where a page contains advertising or affiliate links, it does not change what we write. See our Editorial Policy for the full picture.
