I am considering attending this class in Wisconsin in September. Has anyone attended? Worth going to, or not so much?

Here's a blurb from the site:

The class will revolve around the basics of low power/qrp/covert operation with low-profile/improvised antennas, and communications monitoring focused for VHF/UHF COMINT. It will consist of classroom instruction and a field training exercise (FTX). The FTX will be held *rain or shine*. Dress and equip yourself appropriately. It is strongly advised that the attendee have at least a general class ham license, as HF operation will be involved. You will ALSO receive a copy of my book “Grid-Down Communications."  Dude's site

Here's the flyer for the WI Class.

I know there's a lot of knowledge on the Arfcom ham board, but I would probably benefit from a structured class.

So, anybody know anything about the guy or his classes?



This was crossposted in the Survival forum, as I wasn't sure where it would get the best "traction." If that's out of line, let me know and I'll zap one or the other.

A very nice class and I am a former 05B and extra class ham.

Only reason I am not going is already have 2 CCW classes scheduled to teach that weekend. Booooooo

Thanks for the info OP, I just signed up. I'm an extra class ham but don't pretend to know much and have been thinking lately about how I would use my equipment in a SHTF scenario. Hopefully everything in this class won't be over my head.
