Most of you will find that many of the topics in Basic Electronics for part A of the exam have already been learned at the basic level at school science classes. We will have to refresh our memories as well as learn a bit more. Radio Regulations in part B of the exam have to be learned in full as that is what we have to follow as an amateur radio operator. First we will have a look at the topics for Restricted Grade examination and then see what are the additional topics to be learned for a General Grade examination. As mentioned previously, we can appear for both exams simultaneously by paying the fees for both examinations so that if we pass at least the restricted level, that level of licence will be granted in due course. Once you start working as an amateur radio operator, it is easier to learn further and clear the next level.<\/p>\n<p>This list is for general information while preparing for the exam. Check the updated syllabus from the examination center before appearing for the examination as details might change over time. New regulations may come into force as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To start with, we will go through the list of topics to be learned while appearing for the amateur radio licence examination (ASOC) in India.
