Radio Theory Links

The table below has links to some of the many web sites containing information on radio theory.

The material in these sites would be of interest to existing radio amateurs and to those studying for the Amateur Station Licence Examination.

Those studying for the exam should note that the range and complexity of topics covered in some of these sites is beyond the requirements of the HAREC Syllabus.  Also, the regulations covered in the Irish exam are the Irish regulations, which can be found on ComReg's Amateur Radio Information Pages.

For information about the content of the examination, when and where it takes place, and lots more, go to the Amateur Station Licence Examination page.
