The Young Ladies’ Radio League, Inc., K4LMB originated in 1939, when one YL wanted to see if there were any others out there. Thus 12 women banded together in a male dominated activity, growing an organization that reaches around the world.
Members are from all walks of life, all ages and all levels of ham radio interest. Whether they got into the hobby to talk to locally or go around the world to the strangest of places, the one radio interest they have in common is other Women in Amateur Radio (YLs).

The Women of Early Amateur Radio
The history of amateur radio might never be complete, but some omissions in that history are larger than others, and the story of women in the early years of amateur radio is rarely told. In this video, which was presented at the 2021 Antique Wireless Association Conference, media historian Donna Halper tells the story of some the earliest radio amateurs, who just happened to be women.
