Getting Your Amateur Radio LicenseCongratulations on taking the first step to becoming a licensed amateur radio operator! There are many aspects of the hobby to fascinate and enjoy, but we must always remember that using the public airwaves is a privilege, not a right.
The Technician Class License is the first of three test challenges in the hobby, and provides privileges in the 6 meter and higher bands, including the popular 2 meter band. Equipment for 2 meter communication is relatively inexpensive, and is great for local communication as well as regional communication through an extensive distribution of repeaters. You may also talk to other amateurs world-wide through EchoLink and IRLP systems, which connect repeaters and amateurs via the internet. Digital packet radio, Amateur TV, and remote control vehicles are just some of the other fun things you can do with your new license.
Good Luck, and we hope to hear you on the air soon!
