Two Milestones for Successful Bath Amateur Radio Distance Learning Group

/

The Bath-Based Advanced Distance Learning Team (BBADL) have announced that their 700th student has passed the Advanced amateur radio exam

They have also just passed the £15,000 mark for donations to radio charities.

“Not bad since we only started in 2011 and expected about 20 passes a year.Will we make it to 800 before we close down the Advanced classes? With the biggest class ever (150 enrolled) and the added incentive of getting through before the syllabus changes to Full, we just might!”
