Give them a reason. I got my license for giggles. It expired because I had no reason to use it or means to get equipment. Honestly if you (whoever cares to push it) can’t find niches it complements or fits in… Why even? You can talk across the planet with <$50 in electronics via used PCs, tablets, raspberryPi, etc… unlicensed and near anonymously.
Plus… Ham Is what? A voice call? Ick. You’d have a better chance at brining back Cybikos.
At the end of the day all you need are dank memes.

This is very one sided. There’s SO much more to ham radio than voice.
Maybe the question is “How do we get people to think that ham radio is more than just a voice call?”
Yes. I got my ham tech in ~08 and that’s all I really know it does.
There’s digital modes galore these days. Some people never speak ever on the radio.
See my comment here on why it’s so much cooler than two PCs over the Internet.
I beleive you could send a dank meme to the iss with digital.
