Dan, I have worked on radio for the past 30 years. First in the Navy as a Communications Technician and then in the Air Force as a Ground Radio Tech. I just didn’t get around to taking the exam. But your Technician Guide finally pushede me to make the effort I got a 34. I will be getting my call sign soon and have bought a 2M VX-150 to begin with. Thank you for taking the time to write this up I will be using your General and when it is done the Extra guide.

Thanks for your guides! I passed both my tech and general exams tonight with 35 and 33 respectively. Couldn’t have done it without your guides.

Dan,

Thank you very much for these two study guides. I found them when I was working on my tech and it made it very easy. I had no problems with either test after going through the study guide. I recommend both study guides to anyone wanting to take the test. So far, everyone that read through them passed without any problems. Great manuals!

The tech manual is great! I am new to amateur radio, so this was all new to me. I started reading it last night, finished it this morning, took the test this evening, and only missed two on the Technicians license!

Thanks so much, I am planning to study your General manual and take the test next week.

I want to say THANK YOU for your no nonsense guide for Tech. I used it and got 100 on my tech test within 1 week. I get my call sign tomorrow and have started shopping for a radio!!!!

Hi, John–
Please feel free to print as many copies as you need, BUT I request that you not put it on your website. The main reason for this is that from time to time someone points out an error or a typo, which I correct and then put the corrected version on my website. If you link to my website, rather than simply posting the current version on your website, then they will always get the latest and greatest.

Dan, I noticed that your latest study guides have copyright notices, with the following statement on them:

“All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, recording or otherwise, without the prior written permission of the author.”

I like to print these out for use in some classes, as well as post them on a club website for download. Is this ok to do?
