Not me -- my nephew. Last week my kid sister's 14 year old son was staying over at the house, and went with us when my father and I went to our radio club meeting. For the most part Jeremiah has not really been too interested in Amateur Radio. As we went around the room doing introductions, and the back of the room was a "YL" of about I say 8 or 9 years old -- and she had her call sign. His eyes got real big, then whispered to me "How do I get a call sign?"
On the way home we told him he had to study, and take a test. The other night he came down to my room and asked for my old Technicians book, so he could begin to study. I told him that these questions are out of date, but the information is still the same (the question pool is from about 2000 or so). Anyway, we have ordered him a new book (my dad ordered it so I do not know which one). We plan on helping him as well. However, it has been a long time since I have studied for my Tech, and the one website/power point that I used is no longer valid. ( I used TEARA VE). I would like to help him, so does anyone know a fairly good Power Point set up for Tech Class, that we can download it and teach him that way. Who knows -- with in a few months we might have another ham in the family.
