Ham Radio Activities

The pioneering role of Radio Amateurs in the advancement of science and communications technology is universally known. Their involvement with disaster management is well documented.

Ham Radio licence examinations are currently on hold until the Spectrum Management Authority decides when these will continue. It is expected that examinations will now be organized on a scheduled basis, perhaps twice per year, as long as there is a demand. In this examination, the first of the two parts for Class B or C includes electronics and circuit theory, operating procedures, as well as rules and regulations. The second part is receiving and sending Morse Code. The speed requirement for this examination should be ten words per minute.
