Amateur Radio Class

Anemoi Incident Response is proud to sponsor FREE Amateur Radio Class starting May 8, 2023. The classes will be held via Zoom, every Monday and Wednesday between 8:00pm-10:00pm Eastern Time, with 3–5-minute breaks. There will also be a question and answer session every Tuesday from 8:00pm-10:00pm Eastern Time.

The class will run 10 consecutive weeks (about 2 and a half months) and is open to everyone who is interested in learning about amateur radio and seeking to obtain their license. Each session will be recorded so that they can be shared for those that may miss a class.

The instructor for this class will be Nick Nicholas N8GIR

Hello future Ham radio operators and radio enthusiasts. My name is Nick Nicholas, my Amateur Radio call is N8GIR, and I am pleased to announce that I will be once again offering an Amateur Radio Class to assist those interested in obtaining an FCC, (Federal Communications Commission), Amateur Radio license. This class shall cover the material that includes both explanations for the FCC test questions as well as radio electronics theory and provides practical advice to assist the student’s entry into Ham Radio. This class will also cover many FCC and ITU (International Telecommunications Union) Rules and regulations.

This class is being offered on an all-volunteer basis in the spirit of Amateur Radio Spirit of helping others and the support and partnership of Anemoi Incident Response. This class shall be using the ARRL Radio License Manual book available either directly from the ARRL Website at ARRL.org or from Amazon.com. I recommend that students purchase a copy of this book, hard copy, paperback, or eBook. Prices range from $14 to $30. This book can also be found in many libraries to check out, but many libraries may not offer a 10-week checkout. The class will follow the chapters of this book consecutively each week. They are as follows:

Chapter Outline:

· Welcome to Amateur Radio

· Radio and Signal Fundamentals

· Electricity, Components and Circuits

· Propagation, Antennas, and Feed Lines

· Amateur Radio Equipment

· Communicating With Other Hams

· Licensing Regulations

· Operating Regulations

· Safety

· Technician Class Exam Question Pool

Class Requirements: The basic requirements for the class are fundamental reading and basic math skills. Some algebra will help, but this class will not require more than basic math skills. This class does not require previous technical skills, and this class is open to everyone. At the conclusion of the class, I hope to prearrange an online testing session for the class, or I will provide a list of exam classes dates and locations around the US. I cannot give the actual FCC exam to the students. I hope to make the journey into Amateur Radio (Ham Radio) easy and fun.
