I appreciate the heads up, Jon.?

One minor correction: while you have the correct date in the subject line, the body of the post should match.? I believe the effective date for the new fee, as well as the next exam at KCC should be, April 19, 2022, not the 29th.

Can we move the test date up a day or week? I would like to get my General before the fee is enabled.?

Greetings Michael,

The regular third-Tuesday schedule has been widely promoted and I don't want to change it.

However,?If we had several people that wanted to do a special session, I would be happy to try and set one up. I will need a confirmed minimum of 5 people, a place to do it, and it will be subject to having 3 VEs available for that date and time.

Anyone who is interested in having a special session before April 19th, please contact me.

73,
Jon KK6GXG?


 

I have tried to do an address change and have not been able to . Maybe someone knows how??

If there's a shortage of VE for an extra session, and depending on the dates, I'll be happy to participate in a session.

Personally, I think the exam dates should be listed on the ARRL's website.? That's how I found the info when I first got interested in getting a ticket.

Cyndi


 

Greetings Cyndi,

Did you sign up to be an ARRL VE?

If so you are always welcome to the sessions and Would love to add you to my VE list.?

If not,??go here and get set up. ;-)

I sent in the list of dates for the year in December. It seems mistakes were made. I will rectify this now.
