About Amateur (HAM) Radio
Amateur Radio is a scientific hobby of experimentation with wireless technology by individuals and clubs in their spare time. Hams (as the licensed Radio enthusiasts are called) have invented new radio circuits, techniques, modulation methods, built their own satellites and launched successful careers.
Steve Jobs was a ham. He attributed his interest in electronics and computers to being a ham. Most astronauts are hams as well. So were many Nobel laureates!
Amateur Radio has also helped in many disaster situations where the hams were challenged to create communication system from very meager resources
Workshop Details:
To obtain an amateur radio license in India one has to pass an exam conducted by the Ministry of Communications (Amateur station operator's License exam ASOL). Those who qualify this test are issued call-signs and the license to use amateur wireless bands free of cost. This two-day workshop will prepare the participant to write the ASOL exam. The workshop is an engaging review of basics of electronics and communications, operating procedures, Morse codes etc.
Starting from the basics of electronics, The workshop covers how the wireless communication system works - receivers, transmitters, antennas and then the jargon used by radio operators to communication, operating ethics, rules and general information. The course material will be supplied.
