    I took your Technician and General courses and successfully obtained license for General the day Hurricane Helene hit and I was in the initial landfall zone just outside of Perry. Thankfully, I didn't find myself in a situation where I had to radio for assistance, but my hand held Radtel helped me and my family stay aware after power went out. Knowing I have the skills and the ability to help my community in cases like this makes me feel a little less stressed. Next on my list is the emergency comm course so I can be more helpful to both my community and my employer that participates in emergency response. Thank you for the courses you put together, they really are helping a lot of folks. 73, KQ4VIG.

    i been wanting to get into ham for awhile but, when i try to research some info it might as well be in Spanish. i wanted a Simi base of sorts, a base for a small rv sorta set up. i been on the move 40 years im not really sure how to find locals i can learn from. TH-cam is helpful but i wind up with more questions then i had when i come. its complicated for sure

    • @HamRadioPrep
      @HamRadioPrep 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      So in ham radio terms those base stations are called "mobile" radios. We haven't done a video for those yet. Make sure you consider what modes you want to operate on before you choose. For instance, most radios that do a digital mode will do FM. However, a radio that does System Fusion won't do DMR, etc. You need the specific radio for the digital mode you want to use.

      Digital modes have a big variation by region. For instance the EmComm teams in Georgia are focused on D-STAR while other states have settled on Fusion or DMR.

    Thanks, a great video. Where do you get the software for the map behind you? I’m in Australia and have my entry level license, I blitzed the exam and prac until the very end when in the transmission component I blew it, I uttered the hanging word “Out”, I didn’t know I was supposed to say 73, it wasn’t in any of the study material. The result was I have a restriction on my license that I’m not permitted to transmit. I have a call sign, is there a way for a RX Ham to participate? To give an idea of how entry level this license is, we have 3 license levels (Foundation, Standard and Advanced) up until a number of years ago your Technician equated to our Advanced (none of the syllabuses have changed much since). A foundation license has a few amateur bands and a only few frequencies in those bands with a max power of 10W and frequently less depending on the emission mode.

    Good choices..Except, I would stay away fron the Baofeng if I were a new Ham. You can get a Yaesu FT-4XR for less than $100 and you want be splattering all over the band and getting scolded by the grumpy hams..lol..Seriously though an FT 65-R is only around $110 and its twice the radio as a Baofeng in my opinion.

    My first HF transceiver was a used Yaesu FT-101E, which I still own, followed by a new Yaesu FT-ONE, which I also still own. And then I bought the Icom IC-718 new, which is in daily use. Can only recommend this transceiver. I am a radio ham since 1980.

      Hey Adam, thanks for reaching out! There is very little overlap with the Technician course material. The technician course is very focused on the specific questions for the test, and covers a broad range of electronics, rules and regulations, etc. The EmComm course is much more practical - it takes the knowledge and puts it into practice in real examples and activities.
