(Part 2 of Radio Basics) Wednesday October 14th 7:00PM – 10:00pm The FCC rules and licensing. There's more to radio than just the technology, of course, and before you get on the air (even with a wifi AP) you should understand the rules about who can transmit where, why, and what. This class will talk about the "license-free" myth, commercial and amateur services, licensing and testing for individuals and for equipment. Most importantly, we will discuss why this all matters to you, the experimenter. You can pass the ham exam! Practice test and Q&A afterward. Please Bring your laptops for this section of the course. The amateur radio service has three grades of license: Technician, General, and Extra. The first is a common-sense exam that anyone with a basic understanding of radio and courtesy can pass, and this practice session will give students the background and the confidence to do just that. Of course, the ambitious (or overly competitive) can take multiple exams at once and go straight to General or Extra, and doing so saves money, so we'll talk about that option too. All Classes still have open seats and if you are interested go to www.i3detroit.com and go to the classes section. Hope to see you all soon! This mail is brought to you by i3 Detroit.
