# Calling All Frequency Fanatics: It’s World Amateur Radio Day!

- Posted by ![Red Pitaya Technical Editorial Team](https://content.redpitaya.com/hubfs/Red-pitaya-fav-ikona.png) [Red Pitaya Technical Editorial Team](https://redpitaya.com/Red-Pitaya-Blog-team/) , April 18, 2025

![](https://content.redpitaya.com/hubfs/blog%20featured%20image%20(13).jpg)

April 18th is basically Christmas for radio amateurs — minus the tree, plus more antennas.

Whether you’ve got a shack full of gear or you’re still explaining to your partner why you *absolutely need* another SDR, today’s the day to crank up the RF pride and celebrate the glorious, static-filled magic of amateur radio.

And guess what? The airwaves aren't the only thing buzzing this year. **Red Pitaya is joining the party with a 20% discount on all SDR labs!** Use code **WARD25** at checkout and upgrade your rig — your signals will thank you. 

This year’s theme is **“Entering the Next Century of Amateur Radio Communications & Innovation”** — and honestly, we’re proud to be part of that journey.

Whether you’re just tuning in or you’ve been on the airwaves for years, Red Pitaya has something for every level of [radio enthusiast](https://redpitaya.com/red-pitaya-for-radio-amateurs-sdr/). Want to see what others are building? Check out our [radio projects blog](https://content.redpitaya.com/blog/tag/amateur-radio) — your next idea might be just one scroll away.

So here's to another year of chasing signals, cracking interference, and keeping the airwaves alive.  
Enjoy the day, enjoy the discount, and if you’re doing something cool with your Red Pitaya — let us know! We love hearing your stories (especially the ones with pictures).

**Offer valid April 18–20, 2025. Use code WARD25. Tell your friends. Or don’t — more bandwidth for you.**

**\*The discount code is valid for a single item only.**
