Basic Electronics & Amateur Radio
Day & Time: Mondays, 10:00am-11:30am
Grades: 9-12
Teacher: Robert Brady
Cost: $325 ($175/semester + $150 material fee)
.5 HS Credit: Fall Semester (Elective course)
Students explore the fundamentals of electronics through hands-on projects and real-world applications. They will learn about electronic components, measurement tools, circuits, transmitters, and antennas while building and testing their own projects.
This class is active and application-focused, with students learning by doing as they experiment, troubleshoot, and develop practical technical skills.
In addition to in-class work, students will complete a self-paced online study program to prepare for the FCC Technician License exam. Passing this optional exam provides a 10-year, renewable license to operate on amateur radio frequencies, allowing students to communicate with other operators around the world.
Parents stay connected through clear expectations and project updates.
This course is designed to meet the expectations of a high school ½ credit.
Students will receive the following materials as part of the course fee: Toolbox, combination screwdriver set, “Helping Hands” vise grip set, soldering iron, solder, solder flux, solder wick, multimeter, Etron solderless electronics kit, handmade antenna for 10 meters and 2m/70cm. As an added incentive, the student who scores the highest on the final exam will receive a pre-programmed handheld radio.
