This book introduces the reader to amateur radio and prepares them for
the FCC Technician license exam. It focuses on electronics and wireless
technologies through projects that provide some hands-on hardware
construction and operation. The reader can look upon this book as a
short course in electronic and radio fundamentals that appear as
questions in the FCC exam.
The book also summarizes the many potential activities and sub-interests
possible in this hobby such as satellites, QRP (low power operation) and
the new digital modes. Finally the book presents a more realistic
approach to studying to pass the Technician exam.
