Amateur (Ham) Radio Exams!
Hello all! This is Brendan, K3QB, back to give you all another exciting round of ham radio exams.
Do you come back from DEF CON and wish that you had something more awesome than a many-day hangover and a stack of t-shirts to show for it? Are all your friends showing off their work with an SDR, long-range RFID, or other crazed wireless shenanigans? You, too, can get your ham radio license and use 15 *thousand* times the power of ordinary WiFi (or many other things)!
I'll post more details on taking the exams soon, but for now: if you're a licensed ham radio operator at General class or above, and have *any* interest (or can be beaten into having some) in helping with the ham radio exams on Sunday, please contact me: k3qb at arrl dot net. We had more than 150 exams last year, and we're hoping for this year to be significantly bigger, so we need all the help we can get! If you're not a licensed Volunteer Examiner, you've got plenty of time to get that done (it takes nearly no time and no cost); email me and I'll show you how. Yes, GENERAL AND ABOVE. You do NOT need to be an Extra to help out. And yes, even if you've never helped with an exam session before, WE NEED YOUR HELP! It takes just a few hours and is a blast.
(If you see this, and you think you're already on my list: no harm in emailing me anyway, though I'll try to send an email to my current list soon. But seriously, just email me.)

See you there!
