[ac7nj]

I’m starting from McMinnville Oregon we bought our 5th wheel trailer on August 31st (our wedding anniversary) 2017. My wife Jan is still working until the end of the year, and we are both getting acclimated. So far we’re loving it and looking forward to camp hosting.
Some of the first things we’ve discussed is what else are we going to need?

Welcome Randy I’m Chris, full time RV’er/live aboard sailboat guy. Wanted to chime in cause I’ve been into amateur radio for quite some time and have been studying for my ticket. Planning to take the tech class first and then continue to study for my general and extra class in the future. I enjoy watching Ham Nation on tech TV, Cool when I learned that Joe Walsh is a ham too. Hope to have my call sign soon and add my info to QRzed as well. Happy Trails

Have you tried the practice exams on qrz? A good way to study is take the practice exams over and over until you steadily scor 90% or more. A tip for the math questions questions is just guess because you will still pass. I’ve been a volunteer examiner for both w5yi and arrl so I know what I’m talking about

Yes, that is what I have been doing. I hear it’s like a 600 question total, and I get a random 25 when I take the practice test. I’ve been scoring a steady 87% ish, so I feel almost ready to take the exam. And thanks for the tip on the math questions. I gotta stay up on it to remember ohms law ect.to do the math. I am looking forward to transmitting on something besides 11 meters.

An other tip is knowing where and how you can transmit frequencies and limitations, best to memorize this.
