Do use your radio. Don’t go out of band.

Check also the following playlists on UT:
- Playlist Ham Radio Basics For Beginners from the UT channel @hamradiomadesimple.

Best advice is try to get through on POTAs listen to others, it will come with time, at first you are shy but will learn as you go. Agree with YouTube, so much knowledge. Good Luck

Best advice I can give you for proper procedures and etiquette is listen in to local Nets, you can find them by googling Ham club or ham radio nets for 2m and 70cm in your area. Listen in so you can learn how they operate and then start actually checking in so you can get used to speaking on the air.
