There are number of Extra class licensees in our club who could easily qualify as a VE examiner. The most that you are volunteering for is four Saturday mornings during the year.

General and Advanced class licensees can also qualify but this can be a problem if we have only three volunteers and we have a candidate for an Extra class ticket.

It is not at all difficult to apply. Simply call the ARRL at (860) 594-0300 and say that you wish to become a Volunteer Examiner. You will be sent a training manual and an ‘open book’ Exam. And that’s it!

We all owe something to the hobby. The Stamford Amateur Radio Association is the only group holding regular sessions in the lower Fairfield County area. We believe it is important to continue to provide a test venue for new hams and for upgrades.

Classes are being planed for this fall. (2008) If you can volunteer please contact Fred, K1FC. Please consider joining us in this important work.
