What to Bring
You will need to have the following three items: Your FRN number, a government issued photo ID, and $15.00 cash for the examination fee. For those 17 years of age and younger the exam fee is $5.00 Failed exams may be retaken during the same testing session, but the exam fee must be paid each time the exam is administered. Upon passing an exam you may take the next exam in the series free of charge.
If you are new to FCC licensing and need to get your FRN number for the first time please visit the link below and follow the FCC’s instructions to obtain your FRN number before our testing session.
After Testing
Our Volunteer Examiner Team work through the Amateur Radio Relay League Volunteer Examiner Coordinator (ARRL VEC) to process and complete your application. Upon successfully passing an exam we forward your information to the ARRL VEC which processes your application and forwards it to the FCC so that you may receive your license or license upgrade.
If you do not already have an active amateur radio license the FCC requires a $35.00 fee for new licenses. You must pay the FCC’s fee within 10 days of them contacting you by email for you to receive your license.
For applicants aged 17 and younger the ARRL will reimburse this $35.00 fee. To request youth reimbursements through the ARRL fill out and submit the application linked below.
