This course is designed for anyone who has no previous knowledge of radio communications or electronics but wishes to get licensed. The training will include 6 sessions (2 hours/week) of free classroom training and discussion that is focused more on explanation of concepts rather than just memorization to pass an exam. At the end of the course the FCC Amateur Radio Technician exam will be given on site and licenses are usually issued within a week.
David Keiser is a retired electrical engineer and volunteer with Hancock Homeland Security with the Emergency Communication Group. David leads a team of certified examiners who conduct FCC exams in Hancock County.
