Do You Want Your Extra Class License?

SBARC is planning a class for those interested in obtaining an Extra Class License. Each student will need to buy the Extra Class License Manual on their own, as the club does not stock them. There needs to be at least 6 students to justify having the class. If interested, call Kevin KJ6GDT at (805) 683-7711 and leave your contact information.
