STAR's OFFERS EXAMINS FOR NEW HAMS News!
Since the rule requiring Morse Code has been rescinded, we will not be offering that test element,
but we will offer tests for every other license class. Please note: the Test fee is $15, and you must present
two forms of identification, at least one of which is a picture ID. If you wish to upgrade (for those already
having an amateur license), you must also supply a COPY of your current license -- the copy will be sent in with your test
results if you pass your test.
Exams are offered the Sunday after the STARS monthly meeting when the month is odd.
Test are held in the offices of the Red Cross chapter for Bulloch County, in the "Outreach
Center" on Denmark Street. IE: Next exam is scheduled for
at 2:00PM
If you have any questions on the class or the license test session, please contact
Mark Aulick KF4MLT.
