ARLA/CLUSTER: Numero de radioamadores nos E.U.A. continua a aumentar

[pedro almeida]

Se o amigo tiver um android ou mesmo um Iphone e se for arranjar aplicaçoes
para radioamadorismo vai encontrar mais aplicaçoes para treinar para os
exames nesses países que propriamente o programinha que queria .
Aqui na tugalandia andam a esconder e a vetar o açesso a exames realizados
para uma pessoa ter bases no que eles (ANACOM) pedem.
Eu já dei uma vista de olhos numa aplicacao que uma prestigida associaçao
tem que parece em tudo igual a essas aplicacoes de estudo para exames
americanos. Teve um sóçio dessa mesma associaçao que mo mostrar pois agora
esta privado dos olhos dos meros mortais que nao querem perctencer a mesma.
Que diferentes que somos...

> Já no Reino Unido que, também, tem 3 categorias: Foundation (10W em VHF),
