If you’re interested in acquiring your ham radio or technicians license to transmit on frequencies specific to those licensed with the FCC, then you came to the right place. We are getting free instruction from Steve Knight, who is part of the mountain amateur radio club in the area. This is a valuable resource to communicate with family and loved ones in the event that all other forms of communications have failed. It’s not perfect but it’s definitely a cool option for communicating via Ham Radio.
So the plan for future instruction and test dates are as follows:
-We will have an instruction day which will take most of the day
-We will also have a second instruction day and immediately following we will take the test the same day… this too will take most of the day.
We need the following input from you: -Please text me at 559-580-0538 that you are interested in the class and give me an idea of which Saturdays for the month of April 2023 and possibly May 2023 will work. I apologize in advance if it doesn’t work for everybody, but I’m trying to accommodate. FCC registration site: you will need to Go to the FCC registration site to acquire your FRN number you’ll need an active email FCC Registration - Login apps.fcc.gov
Study manual: the study manual is required, and can be purchased on Amazon. You will need to bring it to class. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1625951
Test Day: you will need to bring $15 in cash and photo ID the day of testing and presented before taking the test.
Final thoughts: this publication will not expire. We will always have classes available as the need permits but in the meantime, her trying to get those interested to come to a class the spring 2023. See you there! Best regards, Chris Frisbie K6CWF Yosemite Ward Fresno West Stake emergency preparedness and communication C 559-580-0538
