Technician class and exam (Technician ONLY)
Join us in-person for a free one-day Technician cram class followed by a ham radio exam. For more information or to register, please use the email at the bottom of the page. The location in this listing is nearby, but not the actual location. No Walk-ins. You will be given the location of the exam after you have registered.
To register for the class and exam, please email J Goldberg AF6GM sandiegohamclasses@me.com Or see the class website http://sandiegohamclasses.com for more info.
The class is free and the exam fees are waived for those who attend the cram class. The FCC charges $35 per new license application. You will pay the processing fee through CORES after you have a pending application.
A good way to prep for the cram class is with the https://ham.study/ application. Install the low cost application on a phone or tablet, or use it free on-line.
In either case, you first "Register" on HamStudy with an email address. This creates a free account that keeps track of your progress.
Once you've Registered for your account:
- Login to https://ham.study using your username and password.
- Choose the Technician exam by clicking on Technician (Starting Jul 1, 2022):
- Click on Study Mode:
- Use the drop-down option in the top bar to change from All Questions to just T1
- Click on T1.
- Go through each question in T1, until you've Seen 100% of the questions.
- Go to the next Sub element (T2) when your aptitude is at 85% or more.
- Continue doing this with each sub element.
- Do not skip sub elements. (Although if you get really stuck, skip it for now and return after you have studied the other sub elements.)
- Do not take practice exams until you've Seen 100% of each sub element and your Aptitude is 85% or more in each sub element.
- The bar graph on the right will display your Seen and Aptitude.
To view an explanation of the answer when you're in Study Mode, click on I don't know. I don't know is designed to give you questions more frequently, if you select I don't know instead of getting it incorrect. Don't guess, if you don't know it. If you guess and get it correct, the app will assume you likely know it.
