Saturday, June 10th at 1:30 PM In-Person Exam

SANDARC's Volunteer Examiner Coordinator (VEC) offers free in-person and online testing for all FCC Amateur Radio licenses.

SANDARC does not charge for first time license exam, re-test nor license upgrade.

Test for your Technician, General or Extra Class License. Multiple elements allowed. Please make sure that you have studied and you are passing practice exams with 80% or higher.

Please note that the General Exam question pool changes on July 1, 2023. The June 10th session will be the last time to take the general in-person at this location before the questions change. If you are interested in testing online/remote over Zoom before the pool changes, contact me at the email below.

Our Volunteer Examiners are mostly San Diego hams who dedicate their time and expertise to ensure that the testing process fully complies with FCC regulations and procedures.

For more information, contact Heather KM6ZQB at km6zqb@qsl.net.

Please register for the exam. Walk-ins are allowed, but pre-registration preferred. Please make sure to register for an FRN before you come to the session. https://www.fcc.gov/wireless/support/knowledge-base/universal-licensing-system-uls-resources/getting-fcc-registration
