If
you are in the USA and want to start a new hobby in
the HAM radio realmn then its recommended that you first go with
the Technician class amateur radio license.
Amateurs
who enter the hobby as Technicians do so by passing a 35 question,
multiple choice exam. The exam covers basic regulations, operation
practices, and electronics theory, with a focus on VHF and UHF
applications. Technician Class operators are licensed to use all
amateur VHF and UHF frequencies above 50 MHz. Technicians who
pass a 5 WPM Morse code exam are able to transmit limited power
outputs on certain HF frequencies. "Technicians with HF" may operate
on 80, 40, and 15 meter amateur bands using CW or Morse Code,
and on the 10 meter band using CW, voice, and digital modes.
The
book to the right is a Tech class learning book that can be obtained
through most Radio Shack outlets.
