In the above video which is quite informative, he says that in order to operate a VHF radio, a one day course must be taken.
Is that a requirement for US, or maybe where he is in England?
What about Mexico?
It has been a while since I read the manual and I will look at again.
Anybody have any information on this?

I think you are confusing VHF radio (marine) with HAM radios. Ham operators require a class to operate HAM

Thanks for clarification, I am aware of the differences, that is why it surprised me and I thought I ask.

He has sent me a reply saying he does not think I need one here, but for me to check locally to be sure.

Not sure if anyone is looking to carpool for the October trip. I live in Simi Valley if anyone is in the area. Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,

Robert

There is a military person that is going to join us and he needs to carpool. His name is Travis Ohrtman a great guy. I will have him get a hold of you.
