FCC Amateur Radio Licensing Registration

• Open to any person interested in taking a US FCC Amateur Radio Exam.
• All license classes (Technician, General, and Amateur Extra) are available.
• This session is only for taking the amateur radio exams.
• You can be from any state or country.
• Multiple exams are available for the same fee. Please make sure you have studied sufficiently for any levels you wish to test for. This is not a place to “try” taking the exam without adequate preparation.

Fees

• Exam fees are WAIVED for minors (under 18 years of age), students with a current ID, first responders, active military, veterans, and GLAARG VEs upgrading to Extra. You may submit the waiver form (which will be emailed within a week of the session) if you qualify.
• After you register, you will get an email closer to the exam date with a link for you to pay the $10.00 fee. You will additionally get your applicant PIN once you have registered.
• If you are NOT a student or do not otherwise qualify for a waiver, please pay the fee as soon as you get it.

Session Participation

• Before the session, you will be emailed information on how to attend the session's Zoom meeting.
• We prefer that you have a working laptop or desktop computer with sound and video. If you only have a tablet or some other device, please contact me and we will be happy to work with you.
• You may use a phone or tablet as a secondary device to show the room around you and to share your ID if your main device is not moveable or does not have sufficient camera quality.
• You must have a stable internet connection, a web camera, sound, and be able to access a modern web browser.
• Please become familiar with using the Zoom application menu and options. Make sure you have the latest version of Zoom working on your device and that you know how to join a meeting functionally.
• Have a testing environment that helps you focus on taking your exam. It should be clear of study materials and clutter as well as not interrupted by people, pets, or noise. It is preferable to use a single room rather than the “center of the house.” Some great examples include a porch, bathroom, patio, spare bedroom, and any other clean spaces. Be creative!
• If under the age of 13, please fill out the COPPA Parental Consent Form and email to coppa@examtools.org and kevin@cpandc.com.
