Amateur Radio License & Upgrade Class

Hillsborough County ARES/RACES is proud to sponsor 2 amateur radio courses: the introductory Amateur Radio "Technician Class" License Course and the General Class license upgrade course, all in a traditional classroom setting. This course will be held on two Saturdays - the 7th and 21st of January, 2012.  Both classes will meet at the Hillsborough County Emergency Operations Center.  The Technician course will be based around the new "ARRL's Tech Q & A, 5th Edition".  This book will be available to borrow at the beginning of the first class. The General Class license upgrade study book will also be available to borrow at the beginning of the first class. On the 21st of January, FCC Amateur Radio License testing will begin at 3:30PM. There is no fee for the class, only the fee of $14 for taking the test. The class size is limited. In order to properly prepare materials and gauge class sizes, please send an email to training@hcaresraces.org to reserve your seat in this class or if you have any questions.
