El Jebel Shrine RADOPS are sponsoring a General License class starting in September. Classes will begin on Friday, 10SEP from 1830-2130 in the East Room (that’s where the Denver Radio Club normally meets now). Classes are expected to last between 6-8 weeks, depending on student backgrounds and willingness to prepare for class at home. That means the last class session would likely be on 29OCT and normally would be the exam session.

Bill Hickey, WA3H, will be the primary instructor and will use the Gordon West license manual as a text book reference. Bill has 14 new copies of the text available at a discount ($18 each) on a first-come, first-served basis. You may also buy the book at HRO or order direct from Gordon West or the ARRL if you wish. If you want one of the discounted text from Bill or just have some questions about the class, please contact him at .

While "walk-in" students are welcome, Bill would appreciate advance notice from prospective students so he can properly prepare the room for the number that will be participating.

Generally speaking, the OASIS dining room at the Shrine will be available on Friday evenings for dinner before class. However, there MAY be the occasional date when they are unavailable and those would be announced beforehand.

Location: 4625 W 50th Ave.
Denver, CO
