Ham Radio License in a Day

With the aviation frequencies we use for air-to-air communication (123.3MHz and 123.5MHz) becoming more crowded, a growing number of sailplane and hang glider pilots ... ... are turning to Amateur (or HAM) Radio for more College of San Mateo Electronics Technology Department and the available on-line. The Strategy

1. the test questions are printed on 60 pages
2. study a set of 10 pages worth of questions for 45 minutes
3. read the question and the correct answer only
4. do not think or try to reason out the right answer, just read
5. take a 15 minute break after each session
6. after 6 sessions (and a mid-day lunch) take the test
Using that method, I took the 35 question multiple choice test and scored correctly 33 of 35 questions (94%). You can miss as many as 9 and still pass (70% is the minimum passing score). The system works. You don't learn a lot doing it, though I did pick up more than a few facts along the way. But for my purposes, this gets me a license. And now I can legally operate my new Yahoo! Search blog as well. Visit Jeremy's blog:
