I think what happened is that the file accidentally got deleted when I upgraded to the latest version of WordPress, the blogging software that runs this site. Thanks for pointing out the broken link. I've just fixed it. Thanks for the kind words, Mark.

I don't have any doubt I'll pass the exam at the very least..... I will also buy the ARRL manual (I should have already, but I'm short on cash so bypassed it)... but love the hobby ! Cheers, Mark (KJ4ECJ - /ALMOST AG) PS : I just checked this site to see if the Guide was still available but it keeps returning error 404 (What gives ?) Good thing I downloaded it. Hi Dan

To be a "successful" radio amateur, however, you'll find that you'll have to keep learning. :) Besides reading the guide, I also encourage you to take online practice tests.

Is this all the info i need to pass the test? Its been years since i tried to 'study' to learn and am expecting a hard time. any additional info via web links sent to my email, (additional study material , practice exams) would be greatly appreciated. I have enjoyed listening for several years on dxtuners.com and my personal s/w receiver. I think the tech in 08 and then moving towards general in 09 is my goals. Thanks for taking the time to help out a newbie! Hi, I’ve been an active SWL for several years and wish to get a tech ticket. Is this all the info i need to pass the test?

Please do let me know how they work out. You might also want to check out the study guides of the Ham Radio Teacher Project at www.hamelmer.com. These study guides have more technical information and illustrations, which might make them more appropriate for use in a classroom such as yours. Very cool, Ronny.
