Ham Technician Class

EVCNB is happy to announce the dates for the next Ham Radio Technician
class. The class is scheduled over two sessions: Friday, February 16
from 6:30pm-8:30pm and Saturday, February 17 from 8:30am-4:30pm. This
is an online Zoom class so you can take it from the comfort of your
own home. The class uses a fast-paced “cram” style format.

The FCC license exam session is also online and is scheduled
individually after the class. While there is no charge for the class
sessions, there is a $15 fee for the exam session and a $35 fee to the
FCC. We will provide details during the class. The success rate for
the exam is over 90%.

To increase the likelihood of your success, 6-10 hours of pre-class
study is recommended - watching some YouTube videos and some
background reading. There is also an optional companion study guide
book. Once registered you'll get an email with the suggested online
links and study material.

NWS Skywarn Weather Spotter Training

For this month's Ham meeting, we are redirecting you to the upcoming Skywarn Weather Spotter training on Thursday, 1/25 at 7-9pm.

This training is sponsored by the Multnomah County ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Services) group and the Portland office of the National Weather Service. The training is offered for all interested parties, not just ham radio operators.

It is an online class with plenty of capacity. Learn how to help our community and the NWS by reporting severe weather conditions. Reports made by spotters provide visual confirmation of potentially hazardous weather and aid forecasters in issuing warnings and storm reports.
