If u sit the course u cant fail really...
I can get u in touch with my radio club if u want I think it was like £20 per weekend.. u are in Manchester aren't u?
The M0 is a bit different tho takes more prep and reading...
a lot of calculating and stuff.... that is the only reason I have not gotten round to it yet.... :D

Having the licence is come in handy even here in the UK and besides that it is fun lol

So u gonna do all three right after eachother?

Thanks for the offer, I'll drop you a line nearer the time. If practical I would try and do all three in one go.

Hey mate,
Reliable as FM can be so very....
Range very depending on the equipment and power u use...
Have a read through the link Richard put on that is a good start and do some google searches on it...

I will try and find some links and put them on here....
U can just have a packet setup and use ur own email via the internet....
But it aint to cheap to setup unless u allready hav most the equipment...
anyway I will search for links in hte next few days
