License in Eureka
Classes starting in October 2016
Saturday Oct. 22nd 4:00 PM
Glacier Bank Meeting Room (top floor)
Eureka Montana
We will be having classes for 6 to 8 weeks at 4:00 PM
to 8:00 PM on Saturdays with the exam on the last
Saturday. You can test for any class of license.
Ham radio is the best emergency and safety network
available and will be used locally as well as world
wide in the event of any disasters, natural or man
made.
Study books will be available at the first class.
You will need to register for the class to get a book by
calling Don Johnson at 406 889 5886
The Technician license does not require Morse code, and the
test is just 35 questions multiple choice. You can get 9
questions wrong and still pass, and during the study you will be
given all the answers up front. You can also study on line at
www.QRZ.com
The license is free for 10 years, then renew on line for another
10 years. We will have equipment on display and there will be
demonstrations of various equipment. Eureka Repeater Group
sponsoring the class has many local repeaters covering all of
Lincoln County and into Flathead county, and much more.
Be prepared to increase your safety by having communications available in
any emergency situation at any time day or night with these systems.
