I got my ham radio license (N9NAY) a couple months ago for very similar reasons. The allure of simple analog communications via essentially 100 year old technology is something that has pulled at me for 30 years or more since I first failed to get my ham license in Boy Scouts. I am planning to learn CW because my interest lies in the simple basics. Narrow bandwidth. Low throughput. Low power.
- selimthegrim 10y agoHow long does it generally take to study for the ham exam?
- vidanay 10y agoDepends on what level of general electronics knowledge you already have. If you are an EE, you could take the exam after only an hour or two of reviewing the test questions. If you don't have any pre-knowledge, then a week or two with one of the study guides should be enough. You can take practice exams at qrz.com and many other sites.
