HAM Radio Training Opportunity
You’ve probably seen HAM radio operators working at many of our races. Since it is beneficial for the running community, many SURF members have obtained their HAM licenses, as well. If you are interested in pursuing a HAM license, Rob Freeburn, who coordinated the HAM operators for this year’s SD 100, is holding full day workshops on July 27, October 26, and December 7. The July workshop will be in Rancho Penasquitos. Other locations are TBD.
For more information on any of these workshops, you can contact Rob directly at: k6rjf.rob@gmail.com
If you cannot dedicate a full day, but are still interested in pursuing your license, Rob has provided the following study suggestions:
Purchase a study guide at Ham Radio Outlet (on Clairemont Mesa Blvd) or from Amazon.

Test your knowledge and find your weak spots using on-line quizzes:
