*WØTLM Ham Radio Technician Class, Feb-Mar 2024.*

We are introducing a new approach to teaching the Technician Level ham 
radio license class. This is the entry-level class for people who do not 
currently have an amateur (ham) radio license.
Registration is now open for the class, which starts on Feb 17th.

We have completely overhauled the delivery format of the Tech Class to 
make good use of in-person and online training methods. The biggest 
change is that most of the core material will be delivered to the 
student via bite-sized online videos, ebook sections, and additional 
content from Ham Radio School. This dramatically increases the 
flexibility on how and when the student views this material, eliminating 
long, all-day classroom sessions. We will have three live Zoom sessions 
along the way to review the material and answer any questions you might 
have.

We understand that in-person training is extremely valuable for certain 
types of activities. Accordingly, we will have an in-person kickoff 
session (Feb 17) for the instructors to meet the students and show them 
how ham radio equipment is used. The licensing exam session (Mar 9) is 
another in-person event. Finally, after you receive your new license, we 
will have an in-person /Get On The Air /event (Mar 16) where you will 
make your first radio contact. To help guide you through this process, 
an experienced radio ham will connect up with you, monitor your progress 
and help you on your way through the class.

The cost of the class is $50 ($40 for anyone under 18 years old), which 
includes everything you need for the class. A non-expiring subscription 
to the Ham Radio School Technician resources is included. We used to 
require that you have a copy of the Ham Radio School Technician book, 
but that same material will be delivered to you online as an ebook. 
Proceeds from this class go to support the Tri-Lakes Monument Radio 
Association, a non-profit organization.

You still need to pay a $35 license fee directly to the FCC after 
passing the license exam.

More details are in the attached flyer.
