STOCKTON-DELTA AMATEUR RADIO CLUB... Our next Amateur Radio One-Day license study session will be in STOCKTON CA on Saturday, December 9th, 2023 starting at 8:05 AM – Doors Open at 7:45 AM Stockton Fire Station #2 - Bret Lawes Classroom, 110 W Sonora St, Stockton, CA 95202 -- LICENSE TEST ONLY SESSION AT 3:00 PM To register or for more information visit [www.w6sf.org/hamcram.html](www.w6sf.org/hamcram.html?fbclid=IwAR2vDvAuDDigVRElyJp_GI2-smSaZ2m-XCu-CGgcofm8sQkoENpo8PdY9Z8) or call John NZ6Q at 209-687-0774 You can get your Amateur Radio License in a single day using our proven technique. No Morse code test is required! Thousands have gotten their licenses at our events by studying the actual questions and answers, some of which will appear on the FCC exam given at the end of the day. No memorization is required. With the HamCram technique the answer that “looks right” usually is. More than 90 percent of students pass their license exam on their very first try. This is NOT a ham radio training course. You will not be learning how to operate a ham radio. You will, however, be licensed and able to learn from other ham radio operators at your own pace. HamCram is an easy way for emergency workers (paid and volunteer), CERT team members and others who might use Amateur Radio to get their licenses. It is also an excellent way for current hams to help family members get their licenses. There is no easier or quicker way to get a ham license. HamCram is for persons seeking their first license (Technician Class) as well as current hams seeking to upgrade from Technician to General Class or General Class to Extra. We ask for a donation of $20 to cover the Study Session Materials. There is no cost to take the Amateur Radio License Exam. Limited Seating – Pre-registration is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. If you have ever wanted to get your license (or know someone who should), now’s the time! Register [www.w6sf.org/hamcram.htm](www.w6sf.org/hamcram.html?fbclid=IwAR0SeE9aXDEEQIyOQXsToSikZvBNjAPPBQvidfJ-jcUZOcDkP31TfNTbMjI) ... See MoreSee Less
