Info
Interested in amateur radio? The LHS training course and exam is your first step needed to explore this fun and educational hobby.
LHS is running a Foundation Licence Course being run Saturday 7th and Sunday 8th March 2015. The exam will be on the Sunday evening (5pm)
The Radio Comms Foundation syllabus for the course should be read through - it provides useful guidance for the course and the exam content. Printing this out would be very useful during the course.
