Introduction to Amateur Radio
Hanover Park Branch - Meeting Room
Hanover Park Branch
Meeting RoomThe Schaumburg Amateur Radio Club offers a free entry-level amateur radio class. There are more than 750,000 licensed amateur radio operators in the U.S., and the number is growing every day. If you are new to ham radio, or just thinking about getting your first license, the Schaumburg Amateur Radio Club can help you get started. This spring, the club is offering an entry level amateur radio course. Because Morse Code proficiency is no longer required, we won't be teaching it, but many ham radio operators still use it because it's efficient and challenging.
The class uses the American Radio Relay League Ham Radio License Manual Fifth Edition (ISBN: 978-1-62595-155-7) as a study guide and students are encouraged to get their own copy.
