I don't have anybody to teach me this stuff, so you're my teacher. Thank you. I signed up just now. I'm watching all of your technician videos and I'm using the hamstudy app - and I do like twenty minutes of your videos through the sections - and I've been doing the practice tests on the app for twenty minute sessions in between, and even though I was testing on things I hadn't watched yet ( and still am ) my scores are going up and I go usually 10-15 questions before getting any of them wrong. I'm gonna go take a technician test in 4 days. I'v been spending an hour to three hours every day doing this for the last week. The test is only five dollars so if I fail I think there is another one in a week in another town over. Thank you for these. The least I could do was a dollar a month until I get all the way through general and possibly higher. Thank you for all of this.

[@palierto]

My tech exam is tomorrow and I have been watching these videos for some pop quiz help. Thank you for putting these up for everyone!

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Happy to help!

[@Gnap1427]

I know it’s been a while by seeing your post. Did you end up passing your exam?

[@palierto]

@@Gnap1427 I did, indeed! Working on General now.

[@Sloppybob2]

Are these the actual questions inn the exam? Also, how's the general going? Much more difficult?@@palierto

[@palierto]

@@Sloppybob2 yes, the question pool is updated and accurate. Going well so far. It helps to not take a huge break between the exam and preparation for the next one so “older” info is still fresh on your mind.

[@johnnyzippo7109]

I am an auditory / visual learner , with paper text books as the review material . I must say , your voice , the tone , inflection and cadence , I can literally hear you answer the questions for me as I take the practice tests . Thank you for the hard work and quality of product , there is no way you could achieve this without truly caring about the aspiring Technician’s out there . I will pass these tests , 1 then 2 and finally the 3rd .

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Wow, thank you!

[@travistexian]

Videos are great, I made 94 on my first practice test. I am in between jobs, so study, study, study. May even try for General when I do test.... I read a 20 year old book copy from Gordon West and was not doing too well on test. Your videos make the difference.

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

At 94% you are basically ready to test. Take a few more and just go ahead and get it done.

[@smudy03]

These videos are very helpful. I have a hard time understanding what I read the videos really helps.

[@p9newyork]

I am currently using your videos to study for ,my technicians exam , they are helping me quite a bit to understand the material

[@Gnap1427]

Ditto

[@thomasmaughan4798]

This is as good as I have seen. The club I participate in has a similar one-day cram course with about a 90 percent pass rate and it is about as dreary as anyone can imagine. It takes about 6 hours to plow through the question pool with little or no attempt made to explain anything BUT you get that license. THEN you can delve into aspects that you find fascinating! Or do it the other way, delve first then cram just to make sure you did not miss something.

[@Mandarin110631]

i have watched through 6 and taken 2 practice tests, the first was 68, the second was 77 and i am starting to understand the material and not just memorize it- thank you!

[@cathyrowling111]

DONT MEMORIZE THEM!!!! YOU ARE CHEATING YOURSELF AND WHEN THE KNOWLEDGE NEEDS TO BE PUT TO USE YOU WONT HAVE IT.

[@stephenreilly2006]

Thanks for doing these videos even more so on t6 it was my one weak spot Took a practice test today and went from 77 to 80

[@anastasiahagerstrom2120]

So far your series of going through the sub-elements has been very helpful!

[@joanhunt7560]

For when you read the explanation and need an explanation for that...Josh intuitively provides it in words normalish people can comprehend

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Thank you!

[@joanhunt7560]

My dad attained a civil engineering certification by buying the books and studying on his own. Yeah...I got an A in calc but I didn’t get THOSE genes. Again, thankyou for the clairvoyant explanations.

[@ProsperInHealth]

Thank you for taking the time to make these license prep videos! I had my Technician class license, but I let it expire. The question pool is a lot different than it was in 2001.

[@turbochardged]

I refer to a SPDT switch as a Single Pole Double Throw. As it can throw the circuit one way or another. Same with DPDT Double Pole Double Throw.

[@travistexian]

Presentation is awesome and the brief explanations are helpful. I am also searching for detail on various circuit parts and function as I listen to deepen my understanding of the part function.

[@amariner5]

Thanks Josh!

[@DARTHDANSAN]

Is there anyway I could get some technical assistance. I have the armor lock tp891 man pack case for my yeasu ft891 . For the antenna I have the 21-30 mhz military whip antenna ANT-129 and the and bioenno BLF-1212A 12v . What cables/ co ax do I need to put this all together??? I could provide a reference video here on you tube on the antenna , battery and , man pack cage

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Can you reach out to armor lock? I can help, but they’re the makers. I would assume they’d have recommendations.

[@dont4450]

All I want is to be able to talk to other hams on an HT. Why do I need to know all these things that I'll never use or need?

[@amberharmsen2497]

7:08 B* A transistor You silly goose

[@jermaineenglish5732]

Where can I take the test is there a website for the general course

[@thomasmaughan4798]

Ham radio clubs offer tests on a fairly regular basis. The club I participate in has tests approximately monthly. The test is 35 questions multiple choice. The premier association for ham radio operators is the American Radio Relay League and they have some resources www.arrl.org/licensing-education-training It includes a test finder: www.arrl.org/find-an-amateur-radio-license-exam-session It also explains the pre-requisites such as obtaining an FRN; FCC Registration Number.

I'm a Marine vet. When I had kids I decided to get rid of my guns. Later when the Assault Weapons Ban was about to take effect, I got back into guns or I would say firearms. It shouldn't be a political topic but it is.

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Hear hear!

[@user-ue5pt4uh9p]

Amazing videos, but would be more helpful for future viewers if you define new acronyms as they come up. A08, While you say what the answer is, you don't explain what the SPDT acronym means. "Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) Switch" according to duckduckgo.

[@HamRadioCrashCourse]

Will do!!

[@GH0ST369]

Does anyone like the Ham Radio Bible?
