While some residents in hurricane-impacted areas can’t send texts or make calls, amateur radio enthusiasts are helping communicate requests for help and messages between loved ones.
I really need to get my license…
If you’re interested then do it now! Because it takes a bit and it’s frustrating.
I installed HamStudy last night and have a training manual which I’ll crack open today
HamStudy.org is what I used. What’s useful is that it’s sort of like a wiki. People can write why the answers are right/wrong.
I remembered some of the science stuff from school so the hardest parts for me were learning some of the vocabulary.
All in all it’s fairly easy to pass with some prep. The worst parts were finding when I could rest and waiting for my license after I did lol.
