Hello Les,
Now that is an interesting topic.... How to get your Ham License in the UK. I have a license here in the USA but haven't a clue how it works over there. Maybe someone can explain the procedures for obtaining a license in their particular country. Hamsphere should be an inspiration to all to get their Ham License!! The best hobby in the world!! 73 Jerry - N1TKO |

Thanks Gary, ive tried to gain some info on internet reguarding getting a foundation licence, but hav got nothing but confused, as far as i can make out its not gonna be easy or cheap.
Ive just got to be looking @ it the wrong way? What i need is an elmer in this country that can show me the ropes and point me in the right direction. Shurely it cant be this difficult. Best wishes 73. |

Hello Leslie
Getting a Ham License shouldn't be a difficult process no matter where you live. But I do imagine in some countries they may make you jump through a few hoops!! Anyhow, I found this page... Click HERE and I found it using Google. There is a list of clubs.... maybe one near you...??? There is also a list of the different license exams. I think the one you are looking for is the Foundation...? That info is HERE And!!!There is a page HERE that looks like a Tutor's page. I'll bet you if you search around and even email the club station, there will be plenty of folks willing to help you. It's great to get a Ham License!! The best hobby in the world. Good Luck and Please let me know how you make out!! 73 Jerry - N1TKO |
