This is a Ham Radio. Ham radio stations were not intended to have commercials like the radio stations you listen to today. They were used to relay information across the airwaves something like the way you use the internet today. As the radio evolved, so did radio language. The link below is a Ham Radio Glossary. It has a list of words that may be familiar to you, but may have a different meaning in radio language. List three new radio words and their definitions. www.arrl.org/ham-radio-glossary

Band spread--A receiver quality used to describe how far apart stations on different nearby frequencies will seem to be. We usually express band spread as the number of kilohertz that the frequency changes per tuning-knob rotation. Band spread and frAmateur service -- A radiocommunication service for the purpose of self-training, intercommunication and technical investigations carried out by amateurs, that is, duly authorized persons interested in radio technique solely with a personal aim and without pecuniary interest.equency resolution are related. The amount of band spread determines how easily signals can be tuned.
