It confers limited operating privileges but a world of opportunity. The material looks intimidating, but you don't need to be an electrical engineer or math whiz. You can pass with the right approach. First, don't be confused and frustrated studying wrong answers. What is the point of that? I found study very difficult with wrong answers outnumbering correct answers 3 to1. Second, focus on what you need to know. Ham radio is a journey of discovery and you have the rest of your life to explore. Third, many of the questions call for a memorized answer. The Easy Way gives hints and tricks to help recall the correct response. You can do this! Jump in and learn. I hope to hear you on the air soon. 73/DX Buck, K4IA About the Author The Christmas gift of a short-wave radio kit introduced Buck to the magic of hearing signals from around the world. He earned his first Ham license in the mid-sixties as a teenager, but then school, family, and a legal career eclipsed Ham Radio. After a thirty-year absence, he became active again to prepare for Y2K. The dreaded apocalypse didn't happen but the magic of radio was still there. Today, Buck holds an Amateur Extra Class License and is an active instructor and Volunteer Examiner. The Rappahannock Valley Amateur Radio Club named him Elmer (trainer) of the Year three times. He enjoys chasing DX and is on the DXCC Honor Roll for contacting most of the world's countries. His favorite operating mode is Morse Code.
