Technician Class Amateur Radio License Course Announced in Savannah

The Coastal Amateur Radio Society will be hosting a Technician Class Amateur Radio Operator course beginning Feb 28th. This is the Level 1 license. If you've ever thought about getting your amateur radio license, now is your chance. We will teach you everything you need to know to pass the 35 question multiple choice exam to attain your FCC license. And you'll learn a whole lot more during this class. We will provide 12 hours of instruction spread across four 3-hour sessions. No prerequisites required and we'll teach you everything you need to know. Attendance at all sessions is not absolutely required so don't worry if you can't make every session.






Here are the logistics:

Dates: Tues. Feb 28, Mar 6, Mar 13, Mar 20

Time: 6:00pm - 9:00pm
