Hi Guys ( and girls).

While its very nice everone saying they would like to do a course, but in reality the best way to go about it is to get hold of your local Amateur radio club as most of them do training/ exams for the foundation licence, If you want to find your local club look on the RSGB web site www.rsgb.org (http://www.rsgb.org) and click on the ' Your Local Info' tab at the top.

Not saying 'No' to anybody, but it would seem daft for people to travel for miles to do a course when there is a local club doing them, obviously if your in the Andover/ Amesbury area then its www.arac.co.uk (http://www.arac.co.uk) for Andover Radio Amateur Club.
