The Guatemalan Amateur Radio Club (CRAG) through its School for Amateur Radio Operators (ECRAG) is pleased to inform that on its June 18 exam session 25 Amateur Radio Operator prospects successfully passed the written exam, having worked one month prior to this date throughout the use of study material given to them via digital form, distributed via email. This allows them to continue with their pursuit of their License by submitting the required paperwork to the Guatemalan Telecommunications Authority (SIT)
It is worth mentioning that among those present was 12-year-old Anyelo García, who passed the written exam with a score of 94 percent, making him the youngest Amateur Radio Operator registered so far this year. This motivates the Board of Directors at the Radio Club to continue this method of teaching so that many more may join our ranks.
The School is now preparing for its second phase which comprises of taking these 25 new Amateur Radio Operators through the knowledge of how to properly set up and operate their respective Amateur Radio Station, and by doing so putting them on track to obtain the required 30 QSL contact confirmations so that they may opt to upgrade their novice certificate. We hope that the new electronic methods of confirmation may speed up the process for all new Amateur Radio Operators, among those being eQSL and LOTW.
To achieve universal fraternity through Amateur Radio
