Technician Class Session
Antennas, Feed me coax, Safety First
Instructor: KB9QG - Jeff
The DeKalb County W5YI group will be conducting amateur radio testing. This is an opportunity to either get your amateur radio license or upgrade your current license. People testing for Technician License must have an FRN number. We do use Social Security Numbers. The cost of the test will be $14 due at the time of the test. You will need two forms of ID one of which must have a photo. If you are upgrading your current amateur radio license please bring a copy of your current license with you. This copy will not be returned. You can test for all three license classes in succession for just one payment of $14 if you pass each one.
