Go All the Way to the Top: Amateur Extra Class!
The ARRL Extra Class License Manual for Ham Radio is your ticket to every privilege granted to amateur radio operators – all frequencies, operating modes, and power levels. It has all the questions and answers, with detailed explanations, for examinations taken between July 1, 2020 and June 30, 2024. To upgrade to Amateur Extra, you must already hold a General class license (or have recently passed all of the exams required for a General license). You are holding the key to your final step up the amateur radio license ladder! With full access to the entire amateur radio frequency spectrum, you will be permitted to operate using every privilege granted to amateurs by the Federal Communications Commission.
Amateur radio or “ham radio” is one of the longest-lived wireless activities. Amateur experimenters were operating right along with Marconi in the early part of the 20th century. They have helped advance the state-of-the-art in radio, television and dozens of other communications services since then, right up to the present day. There are more than 700,000 amateur radio operators or “hams” in the United States alone and several million more around the world!
