I want to play around with radio, does anyone know where to start or something?

my fiction work will be heavily related to radio. having no knowledge about radio will make my fiction work sounds like just someone who want to try use radio but knowing nothing about it

or something? misa only know

alternating current makes the electrons in the transmitting antenna jiggle-jiggle ​:ablobcatattention:​

jiggle-jiggle electrons makes changing electric and magnetic fields that go through the air as an electromagnetic wave ​:ablobcatattention:​

 Then the wave reaches the receiving antenna and makes its electrons go jiggle-jiggle too and that jiggle-jiggle electrons make alternating current make speaker jiggle-jiggle and jiggle-jiggle speaker make sounds wave ​:ablobcatattention:​

@ganbold look for an amateur radio club near you (aka Ham radio club)

Most countries require you to have a licence to operate. They usually require that you si/pass a competency test

@ganbold If you live in the US, consider getting a GMRS license and radio. Or, read about shortwave and amateur radio and do some tuning around online with many of the free SDR receivers.
