  • Irish Ham exams cancelled due to need to tender

    From TheCivvie@618:500/14.1 to All on Tue Dec 14 22:46:09 2021

    Hello everybody!

    There is only one body in Ireland that has been involved with Ham Radio in Ireland for years, the IRTS. The communications
    regualtor has decided that they have to tender to hold the exams , it is an open tendering process, anyone can apply.

    This means for the average joe, like me, we cannot do the exam until at least May. I am about to pull the plug and do the
    exam online in England

    Pulled the plug and registered to do the UK course. It has the same result, I can get a HAREC licnce certificate. Plan also to do my morse, just made an oscillator out of an Ardino Uno
