This is an in-person, tablet-based, ham radio exam session that is open to the public. The tablets will be provided by the VE Team. Walk-in applicants are welcome. If you are planning to attend, please pre-register.

You will need to bring ID to the exam session. A government issued photo ID is preferred.

The exam fee is $14.00 payable by cash or check at the exam session. If paying by check, make the check payable to "Jeff Sims". For applicants under the age of 18, the $14.00 exam fee will be refunded if the applicant passes the exam. Proof of under-18 status is required at the session.

You will need an FCC Registration Number (FRN) to take an exam. If you do not already have one, the exam registration process will guide you through the process of obtaining one. You may also choose to get your FRN in advance by visiting the FCC's CORES website

If you have passed another ham radio license exam recently and the corresponding license has not yet been issued, please bring both the original and a photocopy of your Certificate of Successful Completion of Exam (CSCE)

If you would like to use a calculator during your exam, please bring one to the session. You may use any calculator you like, but you will be required to demonstrate that all memories have been cleared. Calculator apps on smartphones or personal tablets will not be permitted.
