Book Reviews of ARRL Ham Radio License Manual: All You Need to Become an Amateur Radio Operator (Arrl Ham Radio License Manual) (Arrl Ham Radio License Manual)

Book Review: Gets the job done
Summary: 5 Stars

Bought this copy for the wife, but I also used this same edition for the Tech exam a few years back. Both of us made scores of 100 using only this book and a few web sites for exam taking practice. It certainly includes everything you need in information to pass the Tech exam, and more. The Amazon price is the best I could find, considering that it was bought at the same time as the current General manual to get free shipping on both. Using only these ARRL exam books I made a score of 100 on my Tech, General, and Extra exams in 2006; hard to beat that result.

The way I used them was to read the text, go immediatly to the associated questions in each section and try to answer the questions, and look up the place in the text where the information needed to answer the question was presented and highlight it with a marker. That allowed me to read back through the text material for review and take specific notice of the most relevant points (for test taking purposes) of the material. This made taking the actual exams a cinch. Others say they prefer the Gorden West series' question-oriented teaching style, and maybe it works well for them, but it is hard to argue with the results we have achieved with these ARRL materials, and some bit of the publishing profits will help fund the ARRL, which is a Good Thing.

All the manuals in this series include the printed questions in the current test pool, which is probably a cheaper way to get them on paper to study than printing them on your inkjet or laser printer.

Recommended.
