[K3CAL] Public Notice No Longer Required, But . . .

[Rich Weaver]

Public Notice No Longer Required, But . . .

While public notice is no longer required by the FCC, the ARRL/VEC policy is that every test session is to receive the proper local exposure through the various forms of Amateur Radio media in the intended coverage area of the test session, in addition to your registration of the session with the VEC. Examples of such media to make your announcements can include the following:
 Verbal announcements at club meetings and training classes;
 Radio club newsletter announcements;
 On-the-air announcements, especially during nets and informal roundtables that are held on repeaters;
 Hand-posted announcements (fliers) that, with permission, may be placed on bulletin boards in local schools, supermarkets, electronics stores, churches, Boys' and Girls' Clubs, shopping malls, fraternal organizations, and YMCA/YWCAs;
 News releases sent to local radio or TV stations (especially cable companies' local town access channels) and to newspapers.
The ARRL/VEC distributes test session schedules to a wide audience via our Exam Session Search Web page www.arrl.org/find-an-amateur-radio-license-exam-session.
