So, the thought occurred to me today, Wreck Beach at UBC is part of Pacific Spirit Park, which is a #ParksOnTheAir park. That means that you could activate the park while completely nude. NPOTA!

heyyyy fedi, I'm gonna be trying to get my amateur radio license in like the coming week, does anyone have any good resources for that?

I'm in Canada, however the types of things I need know are likely quite similar to what you need to know in the US, so resources for the US are fine as well
