Amateur Extra Ham Radio Class!


Due to popular demand, WECA will be conducting a preparatory class for the Amateur Extra exam this winter.  The class will run for nine weeks every Tuesday night from 7-9 PM starting February 7th at the Westchester Fire Training Academy, 4 Dana Avenue in Valhalla.  On Thursday of the 10th week, a VE test session will be conducted at this location ($15 testing fee).


Please join us for this free interactive course taught by a team of knowledgeable Amateur Radio Operators from WECA.  Instructors will be Amateur Extras or others who have special knowledge of specific subject areas.  The class will review the test pool questions and answers and provide explanations of the accompanying concepts.  There are >700 questions in the pool; 50 test questions; 37 correct (74%) to pass.  All are welcome to attend who wish to gain additional knowledge of amateur radio even if you do not expect to take the test.
