HF Manual

Understanding Installing and Operating HF Marine Radio Transceivers

This seminar was originally developed at the request of the Victoria Blue Water Cruising Association Fleet Group.  The objective was to provide individuals leaving for offshore cruising with a background on basic HF radio theory, installation, operation and troubleshooting.  Following past presentations those present asked if they could get a copy of my notes.  Unfortunately, those notes only consisted of headings which would be of little use for reference.  Those many requests motivated me to write a 64 page HF manual titled "Understanding Installing and Operating HF Marine Radio Transceivers".  This manual will be available at the seminar for $30.00.

 

Seminar Length:  To adequately cover the material we require 2 hours for the presentation with a further hour for questions and discussion.

 

Seminar Charges:  Our seminars are provided free!  We only ask for moderate expenses to cover travel costs, meals and accommodation.
