Course Description
A SRC Radio Operator Course is a short range VHF radio course including training using Digital Selective Calling (DSC). This online pre-course is designed to give candidates a theoretical understanding of using a DSC VHF radio before attending a practical training course where students will get hands-on experience before being examined.
Before attending our practical training students will be expected to submit an open book quiz as proof of the completion of this theory course. The quiz can be accessed only after booking the SRC Radio Operators practical course.
Course Pricing
The complete course consists of the following:
- Online pre-course training: Free
- Practical 1 Day SRC course: R2000
