| | Welcome to W4AQL, the Georgia Tech Amateur Radio Club |
 | | And since amateur radio operators must pass exams on radio theory, interference avoidance, and RF safety, we are allowed to use much more transmitter power than CBers, build and modify our own equipment without consulting the FCC, and transmit on a huge range of frequencies. |
 | | Many amateur radio operators go all the way to the Extra class license eventually, but Technician is a great place to start, and allows you to get a feel for amateur radio without too much of a time investment. |
 | | Imagine that band extended out many thousands of kilohertz, and you'll have some idea of how much additional radio spectrum is available for amateur, government and commercial radio bands. |
