Amateur radio can be found throughout popular culture as a plot device. A recent example from Hollywood is the 2000 film Frequency. In it, the two main characters, a father and son (played by Dennis Quaid and Jim Caviezel respectively), communicate via amateur radio after the father has died. This is, of course, technically impossible as far as is known, but makes a fine plot device.
