Passing this test will get you a ham radio license from the FCC good for 10 years. You will be able to use: * local repeaters for Bay Area communication, * Echolink for Internet-based radio, * satellite and moon-bounce, and if license restructuring goes through, you may be grandfathered to use international shortwave frequencies for global communication!
