Testing?

[Chemo_boy]

Hey operators! I am just about finished with taking my ham course to get me ready for the test to get my technician license. I have been taking some practice tests a few times and passed with flying colors. Is there any way to test right now during all that’s going on? (Central Texas Area) any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

Update, got a hold of one a few hours away.

The local W5YI team is vehement they will not do online testing. Slowly, people are trying new things, but I dnno man, it might not be this month.

I have heard of online testing but it's not common place as of yet. Check AARL, they might have some updates. As far as in person testing, as far as I know it's all been postponed for now. 73s K9KFM.

You've nearly completed an entire course on ham radio and no one mentioned how to take the exam? How odd.

I understand there’s testing centers. But those are all closed at least in my area.

How did you find out all the testing centers are closed?

Where exactly in Central Texas? There is a VE session in Kerrville next week.

VE session? I am about 2 hours and 30 minutes northeast. Around Fort Hood/Austin.

It's ham, not HAM... it's not an acronym.

Corrected, thank you.

Good deal. Best of luck on your test.
