I'm sorry, but I can't understand any of these acronyms.
HF?
FM?
What? Could somebody help me out? I was reading radio threads, but can't understand them.

Re: Radio Acronyms...
That link doesn't have some slang Acro's that may be found on radio threads.
For example HT is not there.
HT = Handy Talkie = Walkie Talkie.
No Q codes either. But here's a link for them. They're not really Acro's though I guess, and would probably not be used when 'writing' a thread.

zombiehunters.org/wiki/ is still 404, but that had an Acro library that was pretty extensive.
Here's some slang and other stuff.
