VE news

Well here we go again; the fee for test just went up (Jan 1) to $12.00 per sitting. Well that means you have to take a test before you pay anything. Whether you take one or take them all at once it would be $12.00. Actually this is one of the best deals going, you get to see THREE friendly hams instead of a grumpy FCC official. We do our best to keep things a little more on the relaxed side so come one, come all. Until next time LEARN THAT CODE.
