Hay Bill
right now you probably pass the test. All you need is a bit more practice
and the test is a fill in the blanks. " The sending station was in what
city ?"
you need to get the spelling OK though and they have been known to miss
spell 
something ,, which you need to put down as sent. 

I believe the passing score is 70 %,, ( I should know this HAR ) and we
as well as most VEs
will give the test over in the same session fer the same fee. If you miss
it the first time
redo,, good practice

but now the THEORY  Ugg.

HA HA HA

piece of cake but you will need to know operating practices etc etc

when you are ready get a copy of NOW YOUR TALKING at cher local Rat Shack
it will have the test pool questions in it etc

good luck buddy  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
