We make videos about amateur radio — getting licensed, fiddling with antennas, and actually using the hobby rather than arguing about it on the internet.
Tom is on camera as 2E0KOF. If you have any questions or ideas, feel free to ask in our Discord.
RadioForUs started because amateur radio deserved a clearer start. less gatekeeping, more “here’s how you actually turn the radio on”. This site is designed to help everyone alongside the channel. We have made a couple tools and pages and we hope people can make as much use out of them as possible.
Some people want the exam nailed down fast. Others want to know why their coax is furious. Either’s fine.
Breaking down what you actually need for the UK path (and hobby stuff beyond it) without pretending it’s mystical.
Antennas, portable ops, shack tweaks — the messy middle where soldering smoke may occur.
If you’re stuck, ask. Someone’s usually awake and weirdly enthusiastic about feeders.
Then say hello on Discord — it’s quieter than comments.
Thanks for taking the time to visit RadioForUs.co.uk — I really appreciate it. My callsign’s M9JAK and I look after keeping this corner of the web running: servers, HTTPS, deployments, backups, and the smaller tools we tuck in alongside Tom’s videos. The channel is his creative home; mine is quietly making sure the front door stays unlocked when people arrive from Discord, search, or a bookmark.
I hope whatever you opened the site for — catching the latest episode, grabbing a stable link — actually saves you hassle instead of adding another tab to babysit. We build stuff here for people who genuinely use the hobby, so if something feels clunky or half-finished on your phone, laptop, or tablet, it’s absolutely worth shouting about.
This place will grow with the channel. If you spot a broken page, nonsense wording, accessibility pain, or a feature that would genuinely help ops like you day to day, please tell us: detailed bug reports beat silent frustration every time.
For anything site-related you can use the issue report — it reaches the tech side of the desk — or email me at jack@radioforus.co.uk. I read both, and sincere suggestions (even picky ones) are always welcome.
