GUARANTEED to pass the General Class Level Amateur Radio Exam!

Using the principles of the Ham Cram Joe Bassett will prepare you to upgrade your amateur radio license for General class frequency privileges. In this upgrade course, founder of Valiant Outfitters, LLC and amateur radio expert Joe Bassett (W1WCN) equips you to learn and retain the more in depth electrical theory, operating procedures, and FCC regulations necessary to pass the General class level amateur radio exam. Joe developed his ham cram system when he “put the cookies of amateur radio on the bottom shelf” for himself to grasp and pass the exam. With his attitude of “if I can do it, anyone can,” Joe guarantees that you can pass the exam in three attempts or less (Joe earned his Technician and General licenses with 97% correct and the coveted Amateur Extra class license with 100%!) . In this exclusive online four hour video presentation, plus one hour virtual tutoring session, Joe shares the same mnemonics, tips, and learning aids used by hundreds of hams to enjoy a lifetime hobby and contribute to society during times of disaster and crisis.
