**** Due to a lack of registrations, this class has been canceled ***

An Amateur Radio Technician Class will be held ONLINE using ZOOM starting Tuesday October 17, 2023 at 6 PM.  The class is open to the public.  If you are interested, you may register using the link below.

Discover the fun of being able to communicate with fellow Amateur Radio Operators (Hams) in your local community or worldwide without depending on fragile infrastructure like cell phones or internet.  Add Amateur Radio capabilities to enhance other hobbies like hiking or boating, and be able to communicate in times of emergency.

This is an instructor-led course given in six sessions with a FCC required examination on Saturday December 9th. The class is suitable for middle school through adult learners.  Past experience says that 90%+ of the students that participate in the classes pass the exam.  No book is required but a couple of good references are listed below:

  • Gordon West’s Technician Class 2022-2026.  Available at Amazon.com
  • ARRL Ham Radio License Manual 5th Edition.  Available at Amazon.com
There is no fee for the class itself.  There is a $15 fee for the examination, payable when you take the exam, and a $35 fee payable to the FCC for the license itself.
