so? licenses (names / addresses) are public record and i do not see why anyone without the license would need a transmitter
Some of us put mail drops in our public record to avoid unwanted visits from criminals. Unfortunately mine can't accept packages, only First Class envelopes & postcards.
Indeed... I tend to prefer using a mail drop because stolen packages / deliveries has happened more than once in the past 2 years at my address.
That would be awesome! I'll take you up on it.
Let me know the postage cost next time you're on IRC.
which ones do you want? i have two tech books and one general
"now you're talking!" 4th, and 5th additions (Technician level test)
general class license manual 4th edition
these are test books from 2000-2003 but really the only thing that has changed since then is the Morse code requirements being removed
for one book the absolute most for shipping would be $4.90 for flat rate priority
i need to wait till i have a way of weighing them but if they are under 13 ounces i can send first class for $3.28 if 13 ounces (minus about 15 cents for every ounce under 13)
edit:
tech 5th addition has been taken
other two are still available for cost of shipping to anyone who wants them
Basically, I thought about trying to find a local "ham in a day" class but I don't own a vehicle & there haven't been any within walking distance.
... I'd really like to get some study materials though, so if someone with radio experience and/or some books or other study materials could drop me a privmsg on freenode IRC, that'd be great
my IRC nick is kuzetsa there, same as on forums. (most bitcoin stuff seems to be on freenode, and I've been hanging out in ##hamradio too lately)
