Administrator K3MRI Posted September 6, 2019 ELMER Administrator Share Posted September 6, 2019 Does anyone out there know any amateur radio jokes? I know my dad knew several, obviously I don't remember a single one. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator KC3LUM Posted September 7, 2019 Moderator Share Posted September 7, 2019 Why did the Op-Amp cross the road? Because he kept receiving negative feedback... (might be more of an EE joke...) 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WB4KFO Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 The President Johnson radio. If you ask me, it's for the birds. (If you get that one, you are old.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmer W3TDH Posted April 1, 2020 ELMER Elmer Share Posted April 1, 2020 There is a great old one out of QST. A raft is aground on a tiny island. Jeeves, the butler, is the only character you ever see in that cartoon series. Jeeves is sending with a key hunched over a battery powered radio. Out of the little shelter on the raft comes His employer's voice, "Tell them we don't have a QSL manager Jeeves and repeat the QRRR" (Amateur Radio SOS of that time now obsolete). QRRR was an amateur radio distress signal which is now strictly for land use because it's use at sea violates the International Telecommunications Union convention on distress signals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator K3MRI Posted April 2, 2020 ELMER Content Author Administrator Share Posted April 2, 2020 Though not directly ham related, other than we follow the weather intently. Here is one I just borrowed from @W3TDH, from another post: Quote Walt Starling; who was a traffic reporter in the Washington DC Area years ago; once said as a snow flurry began to fall — "For you new people welcome to the nation's capital were a fella with a bad case of dandruff can lean his head out his car window, scratch his scalp, and create a five mile backup. People here cannot cope with white flakes!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WB4KFO Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) Several of Jean Shepherd's ham radio programs are on YouTube. Some of them are funny. Here is one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7M-zCaNLTZ0 Edited July 14, 2021 by WB4KFO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator K3MRI Posted July 14, 2021 ELMER Content Author Administrator Share Posted July 14, 2021 For anyone who has half an hour to listen to it, enjoy! It's a really nice nostalgic ride. Thanks Bill. When I was a kid I used to listen to WOR on 710 kHz in NYC. As it turns out, so did my wife (Brooklyn girl). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NS7X Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 My two favorite ham jokes are oldies, but goodies: QRP'ers never die. They just QSB. ❧ Most people don't know that George Washington was a ham. In fact, he was not only a ham, he was a CW operator. We know this because of the old story about the cherry tree being destroyed. When his angry father demanded to know who chopped down the tree, George responded, "I didit dadah." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
