Have any of you hams used this prep software? It looks pretty good, I think. http://www.dauntless-soft.com/PRODUCTS/FCCTest/

Jar - two things:
1 - I'm interested in the class and exam; I bought the Radio Shack Technician's book several years ago, and nothing looked too difficult. Just never had the time, I guess.
2 - if WSC doesn't come through, I can get you a place in Grafton with room for at least 30-40 students at very reasonable cost. If you're interested in this venue, PM me for details. (it's the same place that the OC class is being held).
I'd be interested in a class. I don't know squat. Everything posted in this thread makes no sense to me.
Here's another VOIP program that I've been using lately. Similar to Echolink, but more closer to actually operating on the air, you can tune around the different bands and see who is actually on. They do charge a fee to use the program and it's open to all licensed hams.

I got my book today. Some of it is pretty easy. Some of it I'll never understand.
perhaps a forum based class / study group could be a helpful supplement or alternative for people who couldn't make the class.
