At radioclub OM3KFF, we started course for beginners with on November 2018. We propagated it on Facebook (also paid ad), CB discussion forum, hamradio webs. Facebook ad cost just few Euros and helped a lot. We got about 12 interested people on first meeting. Some of them had a different thoughts and quit early but 8 participants are still continuing. Few youngsters but mostly young adults (25-40). Course is on week basis and we try to put info and photos on our Facebook.

We are starting with general information, show of QSOs. Than theory – operation, laws, technics. Later practical SSB and digi contacts. We are expecting exams in spring and than hopefully continuing with morse training. As weather gets warmer, we often go out for portable operation.
We are participating on December YOTA month with callsing OM18YOTA. I published public call in association magazine and web. I also personally addressed kids and parents from my list. I expect more activity in second half of December during holiday.
