One Day HAM License Class

If you wanted to get an amateur radio license but never had the time, now is your opportunity! To obtain the entry-level Technician license, all one has to do is pass a multiple-choice exam. With a Technician Class License, one may participate in Amateur Radio and enjoy privileges for operation on the HF amateur bands, use of VHF & UHF repeaters, participation in local Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES), and many other activities.

• The course will step through the information needed to pass the FCC Technician License exam.
• Preparation prior to participation in the course and the exam is strongly encouraged.
• Two forms of identification (at least one must have your photograph) will be required to take the exam.  All license exams will be offered (Technician, General and Extra) at this testing session.  If upgrading bring original and photocopy of current license.  $15.00 test fee; cash preferred, checks ok, no credit cards.
