For those wanting to know more about the new Foundation
Licence the RSGB has produced "Foundation Licence - Now". The
book contains all that is required to obtain that first step
into Amateur Radio hobby - gaining the Foundation Licence - Now!
This is not simply a textbook; we provide insight into the
technical basics, receivers, transmitters and antennas. How and
where to operate with your new licence are covered along with
safety considerations and electromagnetic compatibility. Written
in an easy to use and understand style this is the ideal book
for young and old alike.
In addition to the basic book the RSGB are also providing
free of charge an information and materials pack. The Pack Not
only includes the New Foundation Licence application form but
many other useful items such as current Band Plans etc. Making
this a very useful addition for every radio amateur beginner.
Intermediate
Banff and Buchan ARC now has available copies of the
intermediate training book.
With the introduction of the new Intermediate Licence Syllabus
the RSGB is pleased to present our new companion book for those
working to pass the exam. Intermediate Licence - Building on the
Foundation draws heavily on the decade of success enjoyed by the
Novice Licence scheme and in particular the Novice Student's
Notebook by John Case, GW4HWR. However, this is more than a new
edition with it adopting the easy to read and understand style of
the hugely popular Foundation Licence - Now, that many readers
will be familiar with. The book is broken down into manageable
half-hour worksheets and contains practical exercises along with
plenty of helpful advice and safety tips. This is the course
workbook for the Intermediate Licence, and as such contains all
the information covered during the 20 hours recommended for the
course. This is the ideal book for every Intermediate Licence
student.
The next club meeting of Banff and Buchan District ARC will be
held on Friday 27th May 2005 in the New Pitsligo Public Hall.
