Radio Resources

Explore amateur radio licensing, education, operating information, and technical resources. ARRL’s website is a useful starting point for learning about the hobby, finding study materials, and discovering ways to get on the air.

Prepare for an amateur radio license exam with study tools and practice exams. HamStudy also provides an exam-session finder to help you explore testing opportunities.

Choose the question pool appropriate for the exam you plan to take.

Explore APRS reports on an interactive map. Search for stations and view reported positions, tracks, and other available information.

APRS stands for Automatic Packet Reporting System. It is one way amateur radio operators share information such as position reports and weather data.

The map shows reports received by the service; it does not show every station or guarantee a station’s current location or availability. Check the timestamp when viewing a report.

Curious about communicating through amateur radio satellites? AMSAT offers introductory guides and resources to help you explore satellite operating and learn how to get started.

Our club participates in radio activities with the West Georgia Amateur Radio Society (WGARS), whose club callsign is W4FWD.

Visit its website for local club information, activity reports, licensing information, and its event calendar. Confirm current arrangements directly with WGARS when planning to attend an activity or exam session.
