Classes for ham radio licensing will be held at the SC ETV building near downtown Columbia on October 5, 6, and 7, from 6 p.m. until approximately 10 p.m. These are free classes that cover material from all three levels of licensing.
Testing will take place on Saturday, October 8. Be advised the testing location has changed to Mt. Olive Lutheran Church. 1541 Lake Murray Blvd. Columbia, SC 29063, to avoid the crowds for the South Carolina football game on that day.
