    Sure. It is a VoIP phone system for Ham Operators only. You need to have an active Callsign to be added to the phonbook/Users. Think of it as Echolink with a phone. They have weekly nets on it and so much more. Once you have a phone you open a Ticket on the Website to get your phone activated. In my case it took only 48 hours to get me activated. More info here: https://wiki.hamshackhotline.com/doku.php?id=start

    Hope that helps a little.

    Thank you! Where do people source the phones from? Old
    work/corporate phones?

    Operators only.

    What level license is required? Is there a specific frequency associated with HH?

    A valid Tech license is all you need. It is a VoIP Phone system, so not over the air. You need a stable internet connection. I had Starlink for some month and it worked fine. Now I have Fibre and the quality is better.

    If not OTA, what's the point of needing a license?

    Since HHL is for licensed Ham operators only, you need a license. No license, no HHL service.
    Sorry, their rules.

    Does it give you a phone number to recieve calls?

    Is it free?

    Sounds interesting.

    I have an ATA with a phone, and well love to get it hooked to a service, but cost is an issue.
