Amateur (Ham) Radio Classes and Testing.

Just take the practice tests...you'd be surprised how easy the test is. .... Hum.... I has a idea... I could start a class on here... breakdown 5-10 questions a day... wonder if anyone would find that useful?

I would be in for sure on this!

I bet we could get a number of users from other clubs in on it as well.

How long do you think it would take to cover all the information?

Month @ 10 questions a day, I think the test pool is about 400 questions, the actual test is only 35.

Doesnt the test question pool change? I remember Kent talking about taking the test when they did because the questions were changing.

This pool is good till 2022 I believe.

The current Tech question pool is valid until June 30, 2022.

Here is something interesting. It looks like MidlandUSA is going to enter into the Amateur radio market.

It looks like an Anytone AT-778 clone that is somehow cheaper.

I cant make the March 16th exam, but I would be interested in Hamm Cramming before the next one. Is there anywhere we can find out where the next exams will be located?
