GET YOUR HAM RADIO LICENSE (OR UPGRADE) IN JUST ONE SATURDAY!

What is a HamCram?

“Get Your License in a Saturday” is the perfect solution. No long once-a-week classes. You attend for just one day, 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and you’re done.

Thousands of men and women, aged 16 to 90, have succeeded in getting their Amateur Radio license this way. 

How does this work?

One of the best ways to bring new people into the hobby is by conducting one-day Technician classes. There are two types of these classes, sometimes called “ham cram” classes, 

The first is the one-day Technician License Course using the KB6NU No-Nonsense Study Guide.  You can download your copy here. This is a one-day Tech license course and not a “traditional” HamCram Sudy Session of studying just the questions all day long.  In the One-Day course, you will go through the study material in a classroom session, interacting with instructors throughout the day, then taking the test at the end of the day. 

HamCram Study Session: This is not a class. It is guided study — six 50-minute reading sessions with 10-minute breaks and a 60-minute break for lunch. The FCC exam is given at the end of the day. We divide the question pool into six segments, each containing about 60 questions. This is the most efficient way to maximize attention span and fight study fatigue.

In other words, we tell you how to study, keep you doing it in an organized way, and then give you the test as soon as you are finished. It has proven very successful. 


Testing-Only Also Available

The FCC exam session at 2:30 PM is open. We administer all levels of amateur radio exams: Technician, General, and Extra class. You do not need to attend the HamCram just to take an exam. There is no charge for test only.  Donations to the Elmer University are welcome. If you’ve paid to attend the HamCram, the exam is included in your fee.
