FAQ
Do I need my own spectrum gear?
No. We standardize on software-defined captures you can run on a loaner laptop during the live recap.

Yes, objective numbers are cited in each section header. We refresh within two weeks of CompTIA publishing deltas.
What is not included?
We do not ship hardware kits. You receive digital templates only; adapters are your responsibility.
Reader notes
“The floor-plan overlays matched what I saw during my internship week. I still open the field log template before every walkthrough.”
“Clear pacing, though the evening recap felt dense after a full workday. The sticky-client tree paid for the whole article.”
