VHS HAM Radio nights
We have 3 Ham Radio nights planned for the next few weeks at VHS

- Monday March 25th, 2013 @ 7:30 pm – Karl Brown

These nights will be forced around getting you people ready to take the HAM radio licensing test. Vector is running a basic class on HAM radios starting March 16th and is running over the next 4 consecutive Saturdays. The source costs $95 and includes the HAM radio licensing test. If you want to get your licence I would suggest taking this course.
The next VECTOR Basic Class starts March 16, 2013 and will run for 4 consecutive Saturdays. Classes are held in the E-Comm Media Room from 08:00 to 12:00. The course fee of $95 include an Industry Canada examination and course materials. For further information or to register, please contact the VECTOR Training Coordinator.
