It is all in succession, and my best guess is 30 days between each of the
elements -- Tech, General, and Extra. Jim Jim, given the three classes of license you described, how does your course run? Does it cover the material needed for each class in succession or does completing the course prepare you for the most advanced class? Can ou give us an idea as to roughly how much course and study time is required for each class? Matt |

Well done Jim. A think lot of Aussies will also be interested to see your
site. I've posted the address up at aus.radio.amateur.misc. 73 Phil VK6AD Grumman Tiger / Piper Tomahawk / Cessnas Very slowly building a KR2 |

Of course it's legal. It just has to be separate from any comm radio
gear installed in the plane. Of course, this is only true in an experimental unless a 337 is completed and approved. But, since this is a homebuilt newsgroup, no 337 required. Right? On a second note, handheld radio equipment solves all the above mentioned problems... Scott N0EDV PS...Sorry. Couldn't resist starting that war...

I concur (with the pill idea). The original post said that it was
(sorta) OT. How much more of a clue does Peter need to decide he doesn't want to read it if it isn't 100% on topic (in HIS opinion)? As a ham, I love to have ham radio aboard the old Corben. 2M, 70cm, ATV, etc. are great fun from 1000 AGL. As a "homebuilt" I can add ANY piece of EQUIPMENT I want, therefore, ham radio IS on topic for ME and my (experimental) Corben. Scott N0EDV Morgans wrote: "Peter Duniho" wrote Bull****. It's 100% off-topic Not that you'd care, of course. You always do what you want, and call anyone that doesn't like it an "asshole". But why would you bother lying about the appropriateness of your actions? Man, take a chill pill. Off topic is not a big deal, anyway. |

Well, you may have a point, most people figure I'm actually more
"Inbred", guess it's because I Top Post . Howard, VE1 EIS On Mon, 17 Jan 2005 13:25:42 -0800, "Peter Duniho" wrote: "RST Engineering" wrote in message ...

But why would you bother lying about the appropriateness of your actions? Just a bit strong aren't you! I've never seen a post from you helping anyone out here. I have seen many post from Jim helping a lot of fellow homebuilders. And yes MAYBE his quote of 25% is off a bit, so it's really 28%! John KC5VB |

I just took the practice test and scored 28 out of 35...
Nowhere near the 90% Jim wants but, for having never taken any Ham courses, it isn't that bad... John |

It's a shame that certain people are so upset at you offering this and can't do anything but curse and swear like a drunken drill sear. My read of Pete's post was that there was some history of animosity between himself and Mr. Weir, and the complaint about an "off-topic" post was just an excuse to let go with a flame. Jim Weir has ripped into me in the past for no discernable reason, so I have some sympathy. Jim Rosinski |
