[PPRAANet] MARC VE Session; Saturday, January 8th (NOTE: NOT January 1)

[Wes Wilson, KØHBZ]

All --

NOTE:  The Mountain Amateur Radio Club normally schedules VE Sessions
on the first Saturday of the odd-numbered months.  This year, the
first Saturday of January falls on New Year's Day.  As a result, the
MARC VE Team has moved it's session back one week to 10 am on
Saturday, January 8th in the Community Meeting Room of the Woodland
Park Library, 218 East Midland Avenue.  The MARC VE Team is affiliated
with the ARRL/VEC and examinations for all classes of license will be
offered.

ADDITIONAL NOTE:  Effective January 1st, all ARRL/VEC VE Teams will be
charging $14 for exam fees (a $2 increase over 2004).  This was
necessary to meet rising costs of administering exams and increased
responsibilities placed on the VEC organizations by the FCC.
  
Full information, including driving directions to the Woodland Park
Library, is available under “VE Sessions” on the MARC website at
http://www.nx0g.org/ve.html or contact Wes Wilson (KØHBZ) at
wlw at prodigy.net or call (719) 687-8758.

If attending, please BE SURE to bring the following items to the
session: 1.  A valid PHOTO ID, driver's license preferred (if you do
not have a valid photo ID, please call for alternative identification
requirements). 2.  Your SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (now required – this
includes children). 3.  Your ORIGINAL amateur radio license (if any)
AND a PHOTOCOPY for the VE Team to keep. 4.  The ORIGINAL of any
relevant CSCEs you may have AND a PHOTOCOPY for the VE Team to keep.
5.  Cash, Check or Money Order for $14 (standard ARRL VE Fee).  Checks
and money orders should be made out to MARC and cover all different
exams you wish to take at the VE session.

MARC VE Team policy, as with many VE Teams, is to not allow same day
retests on failed exams.
 
For already licensed hams, MARC members should be monitoring the MARC
repeater system 146.820- or 448.650- (both 107.2 Hz) if you need help
with talk-in.
