FCC License Exams

Volunteer Examiners of the FCC test candidates that wish to become Licensed Amateur Radio Operators. Testing takes place the second Thursday of each month at the Lee County EOC Building at 2665 Ortiz Avenue. Doors open at 6:15pm. Testing starts at 6:30pm. FMARC is sponsoring this testing for free as a service to our community, using the Laurel VEC. You need to bring a picture ID. If you are upgrading your license, please bring the original and a copy of your current license. You do not need an appointment.

For more information contact Larry Stiles at:
Phone:      (239) 369-7719
E-mail:       wf4ls@arrl.net

Mandatory items for all candidates is a photo ID. License holders must also bring a copy and their original signed Amateur Radio License. Candidates without these items may be turned away.

As a service to new licensees ONLY, all VEC's accept Social Security Numbers on form USVE-605. The VEC uses this information to register you in the FCC's CORES database and then enters your license data. But is it absolutely necessary to provide your SSN?  No it isn't. You can register yourself with the FCC's CORES database before the test session and receive your FRN number to use instead. This has two advantages:

  1. Your Social Security Number stays private.

  2. Your name, address, and other information will be correct because you entered it.

To do so go to the FCC's web page at: https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/coresWeb/publicHome.do

Click on REGISTER

You will receive your FRN Number immediately upon completion of the required steps. Print out a copy of your registration info and bring it to the test session.
