This article summarizes the unique development process of amateur radio under the joint influence of technology policies and folk technology enthusiasts during the Republic of China period, and analyzes the contradiction between the desire of enthusiasts to carry out research smoothly and the government's science and technology policies that were full of skepticism and restrictions. It showcases a historical process during which the active measures taken by enthusiasts solved conflicts. It is concluded that in some special periods, there will be different scientific views between the folk academic circles and the political circles. When contradiction occurs, there will be a complex interaction between the important folk technological enthusiast groups and the government management. The former has the ability to feed back and coordinate against policy obstacles, so as to promote scientific and technological progress. This historical process also shows that only the science and technology policy of encouraging and standardizing can promote the good development of technological enthusiasm.
