There are no excuses for not becoming a ham at PACIFICON. Once again, Rich Harrington, NN6FW, will be giving the "One-Day" Amerateur Radio License Class at Pacificon. Get your Technician License IN ONE DAY !!!!  The class will be taught Saturday, October 16, from 8:00 AM to approximately 4:00 PM. A special license test for those who take the class will be given when the class ends on Saturday. The class is limited in enrollment to 40 students, so sign up early. You must purchase a Pacificon General Admission ticket to attend this class. There is no additional charge for the class, but there is the usual $15 fee for taking the license test. No Morse Code is required to become a ham!

Rich recommends that you buy and read the book "The ARRL Ham Radio License Manual: All You Need to Become a Ham Radio Operator " before the class . He suggests that you at least read the chapter which covers Ohm's Law and basic electrical principles (look up "Ohm's Law" in the index in the back). You can order the book at Ham Radio Outlet in Oakland for about $25.00 plus shipping. Call HRO at 1-800-854-6046. It is also available at Amazon.com or through the ARRL website (http://www.arrl.org/shop/The-ARRL-Ham-Radio-License-Manual-2nd-Edition/). Make sure you get the latest version which includes the new Technician question pool for exams given on or after July 1, 2010.

Sign up for the One Day Class below so we can hold a spot for you. Enrollment is limited to 40 students. In order to give as many people as possible a chance to attend this class, on approximately October 1st, we will send an email asking you to verify your attendance in the class. If you do not respond within 5 days of that email and verify your attendance you will be placed at the end of the waiting list. If you sign up and later learn that you cannot attend, please notify webmaster as soon as possible so your slot can be used by someone else.

If you plan on taking the technician test after the class ends on Saturday, remember the following:

• The license exam fee is $15

• You will need one photo ID, and will need to write down your social security number on the application (including minors)

• If you don't pass the license test on Saturday afternoon, retakes will be available on Sunday.
