Amateur radio, sometimes referred to as ham radio, is a hobby in which FCC Licensed Operators, ("hams") use radio and televsion equipment to communicate with other "amateurs" for public service, recreation and self-training.
Amateur radio operators enjoy personal (and often worldwide) wireless communications and are able to support their communities with emergency and disaster communications when necessary. They also develop their personal knowledge of electronics and radio theory. Nearly 6 million people throughout the world are involved with amateur radio.
The term "amateur" reflects the principle that Amateur Radio and its skilled operators are committed to helping communities without financial compensation; whereas Commercial Radio operates purely for profit.

Nobody really knows what amateur porn is. Whenever a porn video has the tag amateur, you usually have to check to see what the other tags are before making a decision to watch the video.
I can't tell what the hell is going on in this porn video... this must be amateur porn.

Bitch under the age of 30. Half-assing an attempt to be a bitch. Sloppy attempt to be a bitch....not even a real bitch
It’s hard for anyone to take an amateur bitch seriously.

Stuck behind non-moving traffic... What is this? Amateur hour?
Cat destroying your things.
A Hollywood production you paid $20 for (with popcorn) and you're left with 'what the hell was that.'

Amateur Radio, synonymous with Ham Radio, is the less common, more “professional term” for the hobby. Amateur Radio is a hobby in which you use HF (High Frequency), VHF (Very High Frequency), UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) and Microwaves (Gigahertz) to communicate with other Amateur Radio operators locally, nationally and internationally. Amateur Radio operators use various modes, Analogue (FM, AM, SSB, CW) and Digital (C4FM, DMR, DStar, P25.) The hobby has evolved very much since its beginning. To get your Amateur Radio license you must pass the test to first get your Technician Class License, from there you can get your General Class License and then your Extra Class License. Many people get CB (Citizens Band Radio) confused with Amateur Radio. CB is a separate radio service with a small fraction of bandwidth which does not require a license. Other separate radio services, people may or may not be familiar with are GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service), FRS (Family Radio Service) and MURS (Multi Use Radio Service.)

the act of struggling to remove one's partner's or one's own pants, bra, or unders when things are getting sexy
1--I was fumbling around back there like it was amateur night; I don't know how they undo those things without looking.
2--I know, so then, I reached down, and tried to take off my boxers, but they got hooked on my foot and it was like a total amateur night. I face planted beside her and accidentally woke her up, so needless to say, I didn't score.
3--COME ON! What the hell is this, amateur night?
