Hi George,

Try these two, www.remote.arrl.org and www.qrz.com the second one helped me
get my license and they take you all the way through all classes of license
so you can go as high as you want to. ARRL, (the first one), has a lot of
information too. I am a member there and the web site is great.

Best Regards,
