Amateur Radio testing sites and classes
NOTE: You will need to bring the following with you for testing.
- Two forms of identification, one "must have" a photo such as a drivers license, passport, place of
employment security/ID card with picture etc. Non-photo ID's could be a social security card, birth certificate, baptismal
certificate, school ID card, library card etc. Although not mandatory, the ARRL likes to have a "photocopy"
of your ID's for their records. - If you are upgrading a license, then you must bring the "original" and a "photocopy" of
your current license and of any "active" C.S.C.E.'s for "passed" exam elements for which you
have not received a paper license from the F.C.C.
Please remember that "C.S.C.E.'s" (Certificate of Successful Completion of Examination) are only good
for 365 days when used for "additional upgrades".
- There is an Exam Fee preferably in cash.
