What If I'm Too Busy to Study for a Test?

The basic exam for the No-Code Technician asks you to know the rules of the road for amateur radio , some simple safety rules and basic electronics. A commonly used study guide - Now You're Talking - is available at Radio Shack or through the ARRL. This easy-to-read guide gives all possible questions that may appear on the multiple choice license tests AND all possible answers. Many are common-sense and the breezy style of this study guide has allowed tens of thousands of busy people to pass the license test with little trouble. With a No-Code Tech license you have FULL privileges on all VHF, UHF and Microwave frequencies allocated by the FCC for Amateur use. You can work repeaters, satellites, computer communications over the air using packet radio and many other modes.

So, how can you lose?
