Are you interested in obtaining your Amateur Radio license? Would you like
to upgrade!
The Technician license permits amateur radio communications with portable,
hand held radios which are usable throughout your neighborhood. Radio
repeaters extend handheld coverage across the county.
The General license is the next level license. General Class Amateurs have
the additional privilege of communicating on short-wave frequencies
throughout the country and around the world.
Both licenses are available by successfully completing written examinations.
Upon successful completion you will be issued an amateur radio license and
call sign.
The Hamilton Wireless Association is sponsoring a license preparation
program to assist you in preparing for the November 21th Volunteer
Examination. Study classes for Technician and General licenses will be
held each Thursday evening at Trinity Community Church (7:00pm-9:00pm).
Cost of the Technician preparation program is $25, which includes the $15
examination fee. Cost of the General preparation program is $15 which
covers the examination fee.
If you would like to participate, or have any questions, please contact Bill
Smith (hbco2 at hbco2.com) or phone at 415-485-3815.
Thank you, and look forward to seeing you tonight.
Good success!

Trinity Church is located at 1675 Grand Avenue in the Dominican area of San
Rafael. Here are summary instructions to the church:
If you are traveling to San Rafael from the south on Highway 101, take the
Central San Rafael Exit. You will be on Irwin St. Continue north on Irwin
in the right-most lane through the Mission Street intersection, avoiding the
entry lane to highway 101 north. Continue north on Irwin to the end of
Irwin. At the end of Irwin, turn left onto Belle Avenue. Continue on
Belle, past an elementary school, to Grand Ave. Turn left at Grand and
continue approximately two blocks to 1675 Grand.
If you are traveling to San Rafael from the north, take the Lincoln Avenue
exit. Turn left at the stoplight and continue south on Lincoln to the next
stoplight. Turn left onto Linden Lane and continue through the
undercrossing of Highway 101. At the other side of the undercrossing, turn
right on Grand Ave. The church is on the immediate right-hand side of
Grand.
Feel free to park in the large parking lot in front of the church. The
meeting room is down a small flight of steps on the right-hand side of the
main building.
