IRTS to run Irish Theory Examination

The Irish Radio Transmitter Society has been selected by ComReg to run the Radio Experimenters Theory Examination for the next three years. A formal Agreement to this effect has been drawn up and should be signed in the next week.

As already advised in earlier News Bulletins, a Theory
Examination has been arranged to take place on Thursday
June 16th at a central Dublin location.

Those prospective candidates whose names are already on the ComReg list will be notified directly of the arrangements for the exam. Those who have not put their names forward to ComReg should now do so immediately.

Names should be forwarded to Derek O'Reilly, ComReg, Abbey Court, Irish Life Centre, Lower Abbey St., Dublin 1. You can contact Derek O'Reilly by phone on (01) 8049769 or email Derek dot oreilly at comreg.ie.

This will be the last time a theory Exam is held under the traditional essay type format. Future exams will use the multiple-choice method and the first of these will probably be held in January 2006. Details of the exam system and a sample paper will be published in Echo Ireland in coming months.

South Dublin Radio Club are providing theory revision
classes from 8.00 p.m. every Tuesday night in the
Ballyroan Community Centre, Marian Road, Rathfarnham
