Ham radio enthusiast
 

Is anyone here a ham radio enthusiast? I was wondering what a ham enthusiast would like, accessories, etc., that's not too expensive? I need ideas for a gift. [emoji4]

a 72 ft auto-erecting antenna

The problem with buying hobby related gifts for someone is that they have invariably already bought all the less expensive stuff for themselves and the only thing left that they want/need is the expensive stuff.

Find out their call sign and get something (a mug, mousemat, T-shirt, whatever) printed with that on it.

They use headphones quite a bit, you might consider a really nice set of quality ear buds. They shouldn't hurt the wallet too badly.

Chris: Great idea. He already an antenna on a pole. I'll tuck this idea away for the future.

Glatt: Very true. I already gave probably the last affordable thing he may want on Christmas.

Limey, Gravdiggr: Great idea. Thanks!

Does he have the required ARRL subscription to QST magazine?

Don't know about the magazine, but he is a member.
