The Second Edition "Foundation Licence Manual- Your Entry into Amateur Radio"

The second edition of the WIAs very successful “Foundation Licence Manual” is currently in the final stages of production and we expect to receive copies from the printer early April. This second edition has been intentionally delayed, waiting regulatory changes to the Amateur Radio Licence Conditions Determination, (the LCD). So the regulations and assessment syllabus included in the manual will be up-to-date. The manual also now contains; a description of single sideband by introducing the concepts of time domain and frequency domain; a guide to which frequency bands to use at different times of the day and in different seasons; an explanation of antenna radiation patterns and which type of antenna is best for local or DX contacts; how to winding balun transformers; emergency communications and how to prepare for the unexpected; and several more antennas to build.

The WIA will notify members and trainers as soon as it’s off the press.
