The Williams Fire Department and Coconino Amateur radio club have combined to bring amateur radio classes to Williams in preparation for the exam on October 21. This is the last exam for the Amateur Radio Technician license this year and the last using the current Technician license question pool. Next year another exam pool will be used. The exam will be held at the North County Healthcare Clinic at 2920 N 4th Street Flagstaff, AZ 86004.

The courses will be on Tuesday and Thursday nights from the 3rd to the 19th beginning at 6 p.m. The courses will be held at 515 Rodeo Road next to the Bob Dean Rodeo Grounds. The courses are outlined in the calander following.
These courses are based on the ARRL Ham Radio License Manual 3rd Edition. You can probably pass by just going to the classes, but it is less likely. Some of the nights will go by fast because the information is easy. Others you will need to concentrate. We recommend that you read the sections the day before each class and go over them again on Friday and Saturday. Except, of course, for exam day.

There are other items that will help you pass the exam. You can download the ARRL Ham Test Prep app for Android and continually test yourself. This app also has the question pool for the General and Extra exams and is continually up-to-date.

The Ham Whisperer courses are also quite helpful. If you watch these videos, you will probably be able to pass the exam on your own.
