Last year's testing session at Field Day was a big hit, so we'll do it again this year. The test session will be held Saturday at 9am this year instead of 2pm so it's not during the contest that starts at 11am. For anyone that plans to test, here is your notice to get out those books and materials and study. We will provide testing for all 3 levels (Technician, General, and Extra). Walk-ins will be allowed, but please pre-register here so we can guarantee enough supplies.
Please provide your name, lowest level you plan on testing for, and existing call sign if you have one.
To sign up, post below and we'll add you to this list.

ON EXAM DAY BRING THE FOLLOWING ITEMS:
1. A legal photo ID (driver’s license, passport).
2. When no photo ID is available, two forms of identification must
be presented:
a. non-photo ID/driver's license (some states still have them)
b. birth certificate (must have the appropriate seal)
c. social security card
d. library card
e. utility bill, bank statement or other business correspondence that
specifically names the person; or a postmarked envelope addressed
to the person at his or her current mailing address as it appears on

work permit, report card, or a legal guardian may present a photo ID.
4. Bring your Social Security Number (SSN) or your FCC issued Federal
Registration Number (FRN). VEC’s are required by the FCC to submit
either your SSN or your FRN number with your license application
form. If you prefer not to give your SSN at the exam session, then
you may register your SSN with the FCC before exam day. Once you
have a FCC issued FRN, you may no longer use your SSN on the
application. For instructions on how to register your SSN with the
FCC and receive a FRN, visit the FCC's FAQ page and the
FCC's registration instructions page. Please note that some
exam teams will only accept a valid FRN on your application. Check
with your local exam team before exam day.

Examination (CSCE) you may hold from previous exam sessions. The
photocopy(s) will not be returned.
6. Two number two pencils with erasers and a pen.
7. A calculator with the memory erased and formulas cleared is allowed.
You may not bring any written notes or calculations into the exam session.
Slide rules and logarithmic tables are acceptable, as long as they're free
of notes and formulas. Cell phone must be silenced or turned off during
the exam session and the phones' calculator function may not be used.
In addition, iPhones, iPads, Androids, smartphones, Blackberry devices
and all similar electronic devices with a calculator capability, may NOT
be used.
