​Online Extra Class licensing course

Beginning in mid to late September, W1UL is offering an online guided-study Extra Class licensing course. This course differs substantially from the normal ham-cram.com independent study licenses prep because the Extra class pool is 50% larger than the Technician or General Class pools, making associations between question and answers more difficult. In addition the Extra subject material is more challenging. A book costing less than $20 may be required. Candidates will complete and report on their results of assignments and participate in discussions on a dedicated online reflector. The pace of the course is initially targeted at one sub-element (out of 10) per week but actual progress depends upon the pace of candidate assignment completion. The course will terminate with a two hour review session immediately followed by a VE test. The principle location for the review session is the Gloucester County ARC field house in Mullica Hill, NJ. However W1UL will conduct a review session and VE test for any club in the SNJ section or any location within 70 miles of Tuckerton, NJ provided there are at least three candidates, (not all necessarily from the same club), a club furnished site for the review/VE session and the club provides two additional Extra class VEs. At this point in time an indication of interest is the only requirement, not looking for a commitment at this time. Reserve a tentative spot now since participation may be limited.  Call Urb W1UL at 609-937-5487 with questions or email Urb at urb@ham-cram.com
