Amateur Radio "Technician Class" License Course and the General Class license upgrade course

Hillsborough County ARES/RACES is proud to sponsor 2 amateur radio courses: the introductory Amateur Radio "Technician Class" License Course and the General Class license upgrade course, all in a traditional classroom setting. Please invite your friends to come join the almost 400 people who have taken these courses and earned or upgraded an Amateur Radio license during the last few years. This course will be held on two Saturdays - the 19th and 26th of January, 2013.
Both classes will meet at the James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital, located at 13000 Bruce B. Downs Blvd., Tampa 33612. Class will start on both days at 9AM and continue until 5PM. On the 25th of January, 2013, testing will begin at 4:00PM.


There are no training fees for this class. However, there is a fee of $14 for taking the test, and the books are $19.95 and $29.95, depending upon which class you are taking. You will pay for the test and the book on the first day of class. Please bring a government-issued picture ID card with you, as well.
The class size is limited – and you can sign up online! In order to properly prepare materials and gauge class sizes, please send an email to training@hcaresraces.org to reserve your seat. If you are unable to attend both sessions of your course, please let us know about that as well - there is some scheduling flexibility for these classes.

Please check www.hcaresraces.org for information related to these classes, as well as other information related to emergency communications in our area. We look forward to seeing you and your friends and family there!
