The Club organized and presented a Weekend Review Class for the Technician Class FCC license – We had 7 students attend, and all passed.

The sessions were taught by Greg – N9GL, Ed – N9EP, John – AC9UV, and Al – AC9WN. The group also included Rick – W9ZD, and Bill – WD9END helping with resources and materials. Todd – W9YK led the overall effort to produce another successful program.

Some history, York Radio Club, back in 2005, under the direction of
