5-year-old passes ham radio exam

9 News TV reports on Colton Ragdale KE0CRD who passed the amateur
radio exam at the age of 5

Colton got 93% of the questions in the Technician exam correct, an
impressive score. The USA Technician exam is broadly equivalent to the
UK Foundation although it doesn't have any practical assessments. A
Tech licence permits the holder to run 200 watts output on four HF
bands and 1,500 watts on the VHF, UHF and Microwave bands. Techs can
operate Maritime Mobile, build their own equipment and run repeaters.

Colton's parents Debra K0KAI and Zeke K0XK are both radio hams and it
was seeing his parents using radios and talking to one another that
made him want to become involved. So he took the FCC test and passed.
