Navy MARS is also requiring a general license. Richard <http://www.n7tgb.net/> www.n7tgb.net "When they call the roll in the Senate, the Senators do not know whether to answer 'present' or 'not guilty.'" --President Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919)

Per the new training from Cheif ARMY MARS the new requirement is to have a General class amateur ticket. Right now they are giving 1 year for Technicians to up-grade to General. Not sure what Air Force or NAVY are requiring.

True, MARS has changed with the times and now they are making it a requirement to have at least a General license. When I first got into MARS in the 60s I was able to start off with my NOVICE class license. MARS has had some hard times with frequency allocations sharing some of the spectrum with cross the border comms but today they are a valuable part of DOMS and FEMA for comms support. David
