Classes
Fall 2021 HAM Radio Classes
Starting September 13th
Morse Code is no longer required for HAM Radio licenses.
If you’re interested in Ham Radio, or think you might be, this is your opportunity. Perhaps you’d like to learn about digital communications, VHF, UHF, satellite, or perhaps you’d rather sit down and chat with someone in South Africa, Russia, Great Britain or in the space station.
Technician classes will be taught starting September 13th for 8 Mondays in a row from 7 to 9 pm. These instructor lead classes will get you started in HAM radio. Most students are ready to take the entry level license test by the end of the classes.
Elmer guided classes will be hosted by experienced WARC members starting September 13th for 8 Mondays in a row from 7 to 9 pm. Having trouble putting up an antenna or setting up a digital mode? This is the class for you.
All classes are held at the Ben Wilson Senior Center just off Street Road and Delmont Avenue in Warminster, PA. For further information contact George Brechmann, N3HBT at 215-443-5656.
