Exams for Amateur Radio Class licenses: Technician, General, Extra.

The Contact VE (CVE) is Michael Robinson, KC0TA CVE-34639E

Contact Info: HLARC.VE@GMAIL.COM for questions.

Please note:

HLARC-VE Exams are always administered on a Saturday, and generally on the 4th Saturday of the month. On "special" occasions, we may deviate from this schedule and hold an exam on the LAST Saturday of a month that has 5 Saturdays and sometimes on a weekday if there is significant interest.

So, as a courtesy, we (the Volunteer Examiners) request that you sign up on the Ham Study web site and do so by the end of the day on the Wednesday prior to the "scheduled" exam session. The reason being that we examineers provide out time voluntarily and, if no one has scheduled to take an exam, we can cancel the session and enjoy a Saturday with family. Your coordination with our schedule is appreciated.

NOTICE:

During the Government shutdown the FCC has disabled all access to all of their Databases and services. This includes the ability to register and request a FRN needed for taking a FCC exam. To allow new applicants to test please put 10 0’s (zero) in the FRN field. This will allow the applicant to take the exam, but their application will be put on hold until they provide us a FRN from the FCC. The applicant will be responsible for providing this to the VEC using the frn@w5yi-vec.org email. They must provide their CSCE and their email address must match the one used on the 605 application.
