.... I've been thinking about getting a HAM... no time lately. It looks pretty simple, especially since they've dropped the morse requirements.... A ham test prep book: a little application with the practice tests on-line and you are good to go. You CAN rip through several tests on a test day - to hop from Technician to Extra in one bound.

Brian W Are you referring to Ham TestOnline http://www.hamtestonline.com/ or to a different one? That one seems to be fee-based. Here are two good freebies: http://www.qrz.com http://www.eham.net/exams/ This one is also useful, if I recall... http://ae9pw.com It does the commercial too.... Brian Whatcott Altus OK |

Brian Whatcott Altus OK Thanks for your suggestions. You are most welcome. I should mention that the practice tests don't necessarily jump out of the URLs For QRZ.com, you can find Practice Tests down the page in the left side column of picks. Brian W |
