Show Notes (contains affiliate links): How to get more out of the Technician exam questions
On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly
based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from
listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -
KN6NWZ, we talk about giving the Technician exam a second look, Leah recommends getting First Aid, CPR and AED certifications and Josh talks about exploring Bluetooth on ham radios.
Have a drink with us! Today, we’re drinking… Elysian Space Dust IPA and Lagunitas Super Cluster in keeping with the ISS SSTV themed drinks leftover from the livestream.
For anyone using the ibotta app, Target was running a rebate on Elysian Space Dust. Ibotta referral link here: https://ibotta.onelink.me/iUfE/1005cd3f?friend_code=ddfvpnc
Josh has a short tip with the Ham Radio Minute: Explore Bluetooth on your ham radios, it’s more than just audio.
