Amatuer Radio Operator's Question

[N1XDS]

Howdy,
Im currently studying for my technician test coming up
december the 6th and I use to live in texas and the ham
operator's told me not worry about the frequency's part
of the book that wouldnt be on the test? Now im back in
georgia and they're saying I have to study for the
ham frequency's? I dont what to study accept for
the control operator, who grants you the radio lincense
and the first part of the book I got that down pat.
Anyone can help me please help?

If you are studying for your "TECH" Amatuer License, then you need to study everything that is in the book. Yes frequencies are a big part of the test, you must know where you can operate and where you cannot!

hope that answers your question

Good luck on the Test!

A good reference for what will be on the tests is the book Now You're Talking, available from the ARRL or amateur radio dealers such as AES. Here's a link to the book's description:

More information, including online practice tests, can be found here on the QRZ.com website: http://www.qrz.com/p/testing.pl

Good Luck!

As already stated, study ALL material in the study guide.
Knowing the frequencies is a big part of communicating,
especially to know if you are within the band your license
allows you to be using.
Most radios can be modified to tranmit out of the ham bands
and if you pick up a used radio that has been modified, it would
be good to know if your within the band plan or you could be
in trouble with the FCC.
Put forth the effort to become the best you can be on communicating
and you can be a knowledgable person when it come to helping
others when they have questions.
No one person is an absolute expert on radio communications, but
the combined knowledge of all makes us a great mind.

Good luck in December and do the best you can.

there are practice exams on line at www.qrz.com until you get to the point of consistently passing these i would keep studying before paying 12.00 for the actual exam

Thanks guys for the help I been wondering should I worry
about reading over the frequency's part and I'll make sure
I read them over and over. I hope I pass the test and everything
this is what I always wanted to do!
