Definitely you don't want to put the APRS in the Batmobile either ...

Re: Advanced Licence
Thank's Rob for that ... I really enjoyed the Advanced Course at Ham College ... I guess I just did it while I had the energy to do it ...robbage wrote: Congrats to Nosferatu. That was a quick trip from zero to full callsign.
Re: Advanced Licence
I became VK6DF October last year. I upgraded from the Standard license with the previous call of VK6NDT (which i originally got as a Novice with 10wpm back in 02)
I didnt go down the usual path but upgraded by doing the RPL (recognition of Prior Learning) being a Communications Tech for 10yrs and having extensive knowledge, experience and qualifications in Radio Communications it was pretty easy to upgrade and i did not have to do any Practical either.

Anyway, this website has been a little quiet for a while ... it's good to see some activity ...

Re: Advanced Licence
Well, the 2012 Advanced Course starts again next week, so hopefully there'll be a bit of activity in this thread. I think there's six people registered for the course so far...

Re: Advanced Licence
Your post just above from July, apparently there are some new comers? Just wondering how they all went and who they might be.

Re: Advanced Licence
Doesn't the advanced course go to the end of the year?

Re: Advanced Licence
Ah ok gotcha. As Robbage says, the course goes for about five months, one night per week so we're mid-way-ish through. Of the course participants, one is upgrading from Standard, one from Foundation I think, and another three or four are coming straight in from Advanced (so they need to do three exams by the end of it all, the Advanced theory, the Regs and a practical. They're going to be busy!)
