Ever thought about getting your Ham License?
Well here your chance, classes are each month.
the next class is scheduled for up north in Poway area.
Please Register Well In Advance (three or more weeks before class).
Recent classes have filled early - Registration may close two weeks before class if this class fills early!
The Amateur Radio Service (Ham Radio) has practical applications from providing emergency communications and supporting civic events to education and recreation.
This is an entry-level class for beginners, immediately followed by the license examination. Those who pass the end-of-the-day exam will receive a radio license and call sign from the FCC which entitles them to transmit on VHF and UHF Amateur Radio frequencies (range of about 50 miles).
Previous knowledge about radio or electricity is not required to take the class or pass the exam. (However, a few hours of study and practice tests before class dramatically improves most people's ability to pass the exam.) Study in advance is -strongly- recommended.
Times: From 8:30 AM (sharp) to about 7:00 PM for both the class and exam. (Plan to arrive between 08:00 and 08:15 AM.)
This includes short hourly breaks and a 45-60 minute lunch break.
Location: Poway area (details provided later to those registered (see below))
Costs: The Examination immediately after class costs $10 (please bring cash).
There is no charge for the class itself.
Eligibility: Anyone properly following emailed registration instructions is eligible.
Age limit: None (contact us for teen and pre-teen considerations)
Registration: Advance Registration is Required.
We can not accept "walk-ins".
Please Register Well In Advance!
Seating is limited and classes often fill two to three weeks before the class date.
Step 0: Check your calendar (and the family calendar) - make sure you are available 8am-7pm.
Step 1: Request registration instructions by emailing sandiegohamclasses@me.com with a subject including at least "02-Apr Poway" (we usually have more than one class open for registration). You will receive a reply with registration instructions and study materials to review before class. (At times, there's a large email backlog and it can take a few days to send your instructions.)
Step 2: Reply per the instructions. A prompt and complete reply is to your advantage - seats are reserved in the order complete replies are received. Those who do not follow instructions and complete registration properly via email are ineligible to attend the class.
