While some hams use their skills to provide communications during emergencies and disasters when other communication modes are inoperable, others enjoy talking to people across the country and around the globe, participating in local contests and building experiments - all with an emphasis on fun. You too can join in on the fun when you get your Technician license!

The Technician question pool in The ARRL Ham Radio License Manual and the ARRL's Tech Q&A is valid from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2014.
