Good morning Keith Annemarie and Harry,

I'm sorry that this message of thanks too all of you regarding our ham 
situation problem didn't get too all of you sooner, But I did want too 
express my thanks too the three of you for trying too provide advice and 
suggestions .  Just for the hell of it, This morning I went online too the 
Handy ham web page to the place where your supposed too be able too contact 
them, and there is a log in button for your email address and password, but 
I think that you have too establish one before you can contact them.  Does 
one have too have an account in order too get information? I wasn't able too 
find out any information about this, so that's  why I'm asking.  Right now, 
the material that I'm studying from is about two or three years out of date 
for the Technician license.  The local ham radio club in my area, is mostly 
consists
of sighted members who don't really

Hello Albert and others who are interested in this topic. I talked with 
someone who used to be a key member of the HandiHams program, as I, too, 
want to study for my technician license. I have heard that pat Tice has 
retired and that the program is in a state of uncertainty right now.

If anyone has other ideas on how one can successfully study for the license, 
I'm open to suggestions. Also, I will contact my friend who had some 
involvement in HandiHams and see if there have been any recent developments 
in the program.

Keith

Good morning Harry,   I'm currently in the  process of trying too study for
my Technician license  too become a ham Radio  operator.  I'm trying too 
find out, if there are any updated MP3 files that I can download from their 
web site, but when I go too the handi hams  web page, I keep getting a 
message that says something about a certificate not being up too date.  I 
even tried writing too the ARRl's web page, too see if I could email A Guy
named Pat Tice who did something like this some years   ago, And they never
wrote or responded too my email.  If you'd like, You can get in touch with 
me by phone at 212 (366-6748)

Hi all,
If any of you on the list are ham operators, and you would like to read the 
handiham weekly eletter, there is an archive page that starts with 2008, and 
goes through 2016. Each link is a different month.
Just use your down arrow key to get to know the page, from the top of the 
page.
I needed to find this page, because some of the eletters I saved, word pad 
could not read, for whatever reason. Thankfully, I found this page on 
freelists. the link for the page is 
http://www.freelists.org/archive/handiham-world
