Talk to Japan at dawn. Activate a mountain peak. Compete for a rare call sign.
The General class license is your ticket to the airwaves that Technician can't reach.
Tech + General Accelerator is the study course that gets you there faster.

Built by a real ham radio operator (Donnie Schexnayder – KD0JYV, General class – licensed since 2010).
Not a course factory. Just a ham who wished this existed.

Built by experienced hams. Lifetime access. No subscription. Beginner-friendly.

This Is What You've Been Missing

Technician class gets you on VHF/UHF — local chatter.
General class opens HF. That's the big leagues.

HF/SSB Voice

Talk Around the World
Reach Japan, Brazil, Europe — direct on HF sideband. Real conversations with real people, no internet required.

POTA

Your Radio. The Great Outdoors.
Activate national and state parks with your ham license. Combine your love of the outdoors with your radio.

SOTA

Climb High. Transmit Further.
Mountain peaks are summits — and their radio contacts count double. Pack light, climb high, work the world.

Contesting & Awards

Compete. Earn. Climb the Ranks.
CQ WW. Field Day. ARRL DX. The ham radio world has a scoreboard — and General is your entry.

DXing

Chase the Rare Ones
Some stations call from remote islands, polar regions, war zones. DXing is the hunt — and HF is where the game happens.

FT8 Digital Mode

The Most Popular HF Mode in the World
FT8 lets you make contacts others can't hear. Even with modest antennas, you'll work the world.

Technician gives you a taste. General class gives you the world.

The Fastest Path to HF

You don't have to start from scratch. The Tech + General Accelerator is built for people who are NOT currently licensed
and want to LEAPFROG straight to General class — without years of waiting.

Take Both Exams in One Sitting

Technician and General — one session, same day. No scheduling a second appointment.

One Exam Fee Covers Both

The ARRL exam session fee is $15 total for both elements. One payment. Done.

Your Tech Knowledge Is Half the Battle

About half of General exam topics overlap with Technician. We show you what's unique — so you study what's actually needed.

Is This Course Right for You?

This course is for you if:

  • You are brand new to ham radio — zero experience needed
  • You want to operate on HF and do activities like POTA, SOTA and DX
  • You want a structured path, not YouTube rabbit holes
  • You want to increase your chances of passing BOTH EXAMS the first time

This course is NOT for you if:

  • You already have your Technician license — this course covers both exams from scratch; licensed Technicians should just study General traditionally
  • You're looking for a quick memorize-and-forget cram
  • You only want local VHF/UHF repeater access
