Have you thought about becoming an amateur radio operator but just have
not had the time?  Did you know that morse code is no longer required 
for any amateur radio license?

Registration is now open for a 1 day ham radio license class in the
Cincinnati, Ohio area scheduled for Saturday, November 8, 2008.  This
course will prepare you for the Technician Class, entry level, amateur
radio license examination.  This 1 day class will be held at the Blue 
Ash office of the American Red Cross, 10870 Kenwood Road.  Amateur radio
