Everything you need to know about our AI-powered amateur radio training

Our AI chatbot uses GPT-4 technology trained on amateur radio regulations, technical content, and exam materials for both USA (FCC) and Canada (ISED). Ask questions in plain English anytime, get instant detailed answers, and practice with randomized exams. The AI tracks your progress and identifies weak areas automatically.

With our AI system, most students are exam-ready in 4-6 weeks with regular study (30-60 min/day). Dedicated students can prepare in as little as 2-3 weeks. The AI adapts to your pace and learning style, making study time more efficient than traditional methods. Study whenever works for you - the AI is available 24/7!

Our mission is making amateur radio accessible to everyone worldwide!

No equipment needed until after you're licensed! All you need is a computer, tablet, or smartphone with internet access. Our AI system teaches all the theory and regulations first. Once licensed, you can start with an inexpensive handheld radio ($30-50) for local VHF/UHF communication. The AI can help you choose equipment after licensing based on your interests.

USA: Exams are offered by Volunteer Examiner Coordinators (VECs) at local ham clubs, conventions, and online. Search for sessions at ARRL.org or HamStudy.org. Many offer remote online testing.

Canada: Contact your local amateur radio club to find ISED-accredited examiners. Many clubs now offer online proctored exams. Use our Find a Club tool to locate examiners near you.
