Weather you are new to Ham Radio or looking to upgrade your licensing you should know that CRRG/CARBBN does free testing. Once a month at Denhac we do testing. You should prepare for your testing using Ham Study, a free and excellent tool to prepare you for the test regardless of the level you are testing for.
Amateur Radio is an excellent hobby which gives you the ability to have communications that are not dependant on the telecommunications grid that exists today. There is a very diverse range of things to do in Ham Radio from digital modes doing keyboard to keyboard communications to high frequency voice and Slow Scan TV. There is something for everyone!
Be sure to find a free testing session on Ham Study: https://hamstudy.org/sessions/W0PCT
Sessions are limited to 10 applicants so be sure to sign up soon!
