Study material will be based on the ARRL publication, “Now You’re Talking,” introducing basic radio theory. Students will also learn Federal Communications Commission rules and regulations and the information needed to operate an amateur radio station. Experienced volunteer amateur radio operators from the Colonial Wireless Association ham club will help participants pass the licensing examination. This exam given at the fourth session is based on 35 multiple-choice questions selected from a published question and answer pool, which students will be able to study. Note: The Morse code test is no longer required.
Those wishing to take FCC examinations for higher level licenses on March 2 may arrange to do so with prior notice to the instructors. The registration fee is $20. The FCC exam fee is $14, and the text book is available at cost from the instructors for $15.
