note that i couldn't really tell you much about the ham scene anymore, since i didn't bother to actually follow up by getting a radio. |

Date: April 26th, 2016 9:52 AM Author: buff point I don't plan on joining the HAM radio scene. I need to instal a portable HAM radio in my vehicle as a condition to participating in an overland event later this year. This is solely for the purpose of communicating with people in other vehicles. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3205663&forum_id=2#30348689) |

Just study the rest questions. It's only 100 they have to chose from. Very simple to get these down. Get an app and blow through them while waiting in line etc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3205663&forum_id=2#30348724) |

Date: April 26th, 2016 10:40 AM Author: buff point If I spend two hours studying the questions, how likely will I pass? Assume I am excellent at multiple choice tests. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3205663&forum_id=2#30348935) |

Date: April 26th, 2016 10:48 AM Author: buff point lol I need to stop psyching myself out about shit like this. I built the test up in my head as being very difficult, which was stupid. I know that borderline retard adults take and pass the test all the time. Of course it is going to be a joke. |

But no, just memorizing 100 multiple choice is not very difficult. Don't bother with the prep book. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3205663&forum_id=2#30349012) |

Date: April 26th, 2016 11:14 AM Author: buff point Yes. I believe there are three certifications, with each allowing lawful access to more spectrum.
There has been a boon in portable HAM radios in recent years. They are replacing traditional CB radios since they have much better reception and reliability. This was brought on by the introduction of several inexpensive Chinese HAM radios, such as this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00MAULSOK?psc=1 |

Those little baofengs are impressive for the price. They also let you program them to broadcast on frs or gmrs. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3205663&forum_id=2#30349192) |
