From ARVic, original post here.

The push for youth involvement in Amateur Radio continues, this time a new free booklet is available to help prime youngsters on what the hobby has to offer.

The aptly named 40-page publication ‘Alex Discovers Amateur Radio’ comes as a downloadable PDF, with a cartoon style story giving basic information, some history, applications and the relevance in the world today.

At the end of each section is as Multiple Choice Quiz in which the reader is invited to tick the box.  It has been peppered with the modern QR-Code which is a barcode for use on mobile devices, and URLs enabling the reader to get more information.

Although written for the British scene its language and style makes it also suitable for use elsewhere including Australia which also has a Foundation Licence.

Downloadable 8.8MB PDF is available here.
