Spain Seeks to Attract Youngsters to Amateur Radio
/Spain's national amateur radio society URE says "If you are young, join the URE and discover amateur radio" and offers both free membership and a free training manual
Amateur radio? Yes, Radio-Afición, the technological and experimental hobby that will hook you forever.
The exciting world of amateur communications opens up before you, a universe of technology and operational challenges, advanced modes of digital communications, via satellite and microwave, ionospheric propagation, radio-sport and radio from the summits, experimenting, construction of antennas and great opportunities to learn and make friends. We are the Union of Spanish Radio Amateurs www.ure.es and we welcome you.
If you are under 18 (and over 14) membership is free (FREE!) and we give you the "exam book" (with a value of 23 euros in the store) that will help you prepare for the exam to obtain your "operator" license. A magnificent informative book that explains all the basic theory of electricity, electronics and telecommunications and the legislation on amateur radio that you should know.
If you are under 25 years of age you will have a 50% reduction of your membership fee, when you have already obtained your operator's license and are already a full member of the URE ("normal" member).
