AI Ham Radio Companion for Claude | Antenna Calculator and License Study Plan | Digital Download

Get licensed. Get on the air. Make contacts.

Shack Book turns Claude into the Elmer every new ham wishes they had. It coaches you through the exam with real understanding, plans a station that fits your space and budget, does the antenna and power math, sets up FT8 without the headaches, keeps your log in UTC and gets you ready for POTA, contests and nets.
