At the moment, the scheduling is pretty flexible. If there is
sufficient interest, we could probably organize something in late
August or early September. Otherwise, the next scheduled course is in
early October.

In the past, we've devoted Saturday (9:00 am - 4:00 pm) to lectures:

Radio Regulations/Operating Procedure
Basic Electronics
Station Layout and Assembly

Power Supplies, Receivers, and Transmitters
Antennas and Transmission Lines
Propagation

then devoted Sunday afternoon (1:00 - 3:00 pm) to a review session and
examination.

Note that if we put together an edition of the course specifically for
VanLUG members, we could probably breeze through the basic electronics
section and arrange to cover a few topics of particular interest to
digital amateurs.
