Pass Your GROL License Test builds on the successful "Easy Way" series of Amateur Radio license manuals.Other commercial radio license study books take you through the questions and all possible answers on the multiple choice test. The problem with that approach is that you must read three wrong answers for every one right answer. That's 432 wrong answers and 144 right answers for GROL Element 1 and 1,800 wrong answers and 600 right answers for Element 3. Why study 2,232 wrong answers? There is nothing to learn there. The unique "Easy Way" approach has four elements. First, you never see wrong answers so you should recognize the right answer on the test. The wrong answers will look strange and unfamiliar. Second, the text explains the answers using plain English. Third, a summary at the end of each Subelement contains a bullet version of the questions or concepts to reinforce your memory.Fourth, many of the questions and answers are long-winded and involved. They are full of unnecessary information that can confuse you. Sometimes, all you need do is tie two words together to recognize the answer. Often, the question contains a clue to the correct answer. Hints and cheats help you decipher the question and reveal the hidden answer. It couldn't be easier.

"The Audible copy was GREAT because Michael Burnette is an exciting and entertaining and memorable guide!" "Thank you! Thank you a thousand times over. I bought your book in order to study for my tech license(Kindle version) and the audiobook and I loved them! I originally bought ** *****'s CD's and they confused me. I bought yours and it made learning simple and enjoyable. I did this to surprise my husband of 30 years who has had a license sincethe early parts of our marriage. He has asked me off and on to consider getting a license and I kept saying no. Well with the help of your book and audiobook, I was able to blow his doors off and pass my technician exam first try. Now if you only had volumes for general and expert, the world would be perfect. Seriously thanks again."
