Technicians who pass a 5wpm code test get the old Tech+/Novice HF privileges. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE VE for ARRL and W5YI This arguement is pointless. You can't talk to a brick wall. I'm done here. 73 Frank K3EKO Paragraph 97.301(e) clearly lists the HF privileges for any Technician who has passed the 5wpm code test. So the brick wall is you and you have yet to state where you get your source of information. It certainly is not the FCC rules. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE VE for ARRL and W5YI This is from the W5YI website. http://www.w5yi.org/AmRadio.htm#TECHNICIAN TECHNICIAN Almost all radioamateurs begin their ham career as a "Tech." The privileges of a Technician Class operator license include operating stations while transmitting on channels in any of 17 frequency bands above 50 MHz with up to 1,500 watts power. It also allows access to the two most popular ham bands, 2 meters and 70 cm ...otherwise known as "450" (MHz.). To pass the Technician Class examination, at least 26 multiple choice questions from a 35 question written examination must be answered correctly. There are a total of 384 possible questions in the pool from which these 35 questions are drawn. All questions in the various question banks are known and widely published. There are no secret questions. The Technician Class is the most popular license with about one-third of all radioamateurs holding this license class. You will find Technician study materials here and here. This page is out of date as it is obviously pre-restructuring. It discusses the three license classes that are no longer tested for or issued as new licenses (i.e. Novice, Tech Plus, and Advanced). That information is superseded by the FCC rules. So go buy yourself the latest rulebook or the latest study guide published by W5YI (i.e. the Gordon West book). Dee D. Flint, N8UZE VE for ARRL and W5YI |
