Amateur radio operator David Wilson, KU4B, is teaching the class based on material from the American Radio Relay League (ARRL). It meets on Saturday afternoons at 3:00 P.M. at the fire station at 2785 Barfield Road in Murfreesboro. David has created a website with some information on the class.

Also, the next scheduled exam session will be March 12, 2016, in Murfreesboro at 9:00 AM The location for that exam session: Rutherford Fire Rescue Building, 1504 West College Street, here in Murfreesboro.
