Earning the Radio Merit Badge is an important pursuit for
Scouts who wish to get started learning electronics and
radio communications. There is no better way to learn
both while having fun through the hobby of ham radio. Not
only will your Scouts earn their Radio Merit Badge, they
also can earn their entry-level Technician Class FCC
license. Becoming a Technician Class amateur radio
operator will provide them with the opportunity to enjoy
a life-long hobby, and to actively participate in public
service and emergency radio communications on a volunteer
basis.
The W5YI Group and Amateur Radio author Gordon West,
WB6NOA, have developed a Ham Instructor Program that
provides you with FREE resource materials for teaching
the entry-level amateur radio Technician Class License.
These materials include:
* FREE Technician Class Instructor Guide that will help
you organize and begin teaching your amateur radio
course. Even if you’re not a licensed amateur radio
operator, you’ll find this teaching aid easy to use
and understand.
The Instructor Guide highlights the latest Radio Merit
Badge requirements and shows Merit Badge activities that
are related to amateur radio. The Guide provides a course
outline for teaching with the Gordon West Technician
Class book, has many suggestions for in-class
demonstrations, and includes fill-in-the-blank homework
to encourage pre-study.
* FREE Power Point presentation on CD that parallels the Gordon
West Technician Class Study Manual.
This teaching aid will help you focus your students as
you work through the Technician Class license exam
questions and answers, and review Gordo’s fun,
education answer explanations.
* FREE additional support materials including a free copy
of Getting Started in Electronics by
Forrest Mims III, comprehensive Band Plan Charts that
explains ham radio frequency privileges, and other
helpful teaching aids.
