What Am I Planning To Use For My Study Materials?



Study Materials for exam prep
These are the primary study materials I will be using to prepare for my licensing exam: I have the official ARRL Ham Radio Licence Manual, a practice test cd, and a computer for online research. Shown in the image is an FM transceiver that picks up amateur bands.
The manual comes with a testing CD and is available from Amazon.com for just under $30.00USD.

The link is for the most recent version to include the 2015 question pool.

The Baofeng radio belongs to my uncle and is also from Amazon. There are many models to choose from to get you started but the latest model of the one shown above is the Baofeng UV-5R V2+ Dual-Band Ham Radio.

These few materials, time, effort and working with another ham is really all that one needs to get started down a track that can enrich your life. I'm excited and am looking forward to the challenge!
