NCRC Technican Class Underway

April 30th marked the start of a new set of Technician classes offered by NCRC and graciously hosted by The MET School in Newport.  Eleven people started the class (two more are expected to join in next week), and it is a diverse group of ages (High School students and adults), backgrounds (educators and firefighters).  The exam is currently scheduled for June 11th — just in time to obtain their license for Field Day!

Congratulations New Hams

Tonight marks the final step for six new Technicians who took our classes, passed their exam, and have received a pre-programmed dual-band HT during a class that introduced them to basic radio procedures, net operations, and HT programming/operations.

Please welcome our newest members of NCRC:

KC1CVY – Pete
KC1CVZ – Kathryn
KC1CWA – Harry
KC1CWB – Frank
KC1CWQ – Jason
KC1CWX – Forrest

Our next Technician Class is planned for downtown Newport beginning the end of March, 2015.
