It's a weekly internet program about ham radio which started up about a year
ago.  Video and audio.  The web address is
http://twit.tv/hn
It does not try to provide general coverage like amateur radio newsline or
ARRL bulletins, but runs some features every week.  I think the objective is
to show that ham radio is fun.  Imagine that!

The site twit.tv stands for "this week in technology".  Ham Nation is just
one of its shows.  There have been 63 episodes so far.
