Course Description
PDEV-1018   Amateur Radio Operator Introduction

Enter the hobby world of amateur radio and connect with people in radio stations around the world.  Learn elementary electronics, how to set up and operate an amateur station, how to transmit and receive safely, and industry regulations. 

Amateur radio operators provide public service communications for marathons, bike races, and parades; and during emergencies such as floods, tornadoes, or ice storms.  Morse code is no longer required to get "on the air."

This basic course is designed, managed and instructed by the Winnipeg Amateur Radio Club (WARC), and provides the opportunity to write the Basic Qualification Exam for a licenced Amateur Radio Operator in Canada.  A study and operator’s guide, as well as a 6-month membership to Radio Amateurs of Canada, are included.
