Last updated on Friday, December 8, 2017

(BLOOMINGTON) - The Bloomington Amateur Radio Club conducts Volunteer Exam Testing for amateur radio licenses on the first Saturday of each month.

Testing is held at the First United Church, 2420 East 3rd Street in Bloomington, just west of Eastland Plaza. This is behind the Prompt Care and IU Credit Union.

Testing always begins at Noon. Please arrive 20-30 minutes early to fill out all paperwork.

When: Noon on the first Saturday of each month
Where: First United Church on East 3rd Street in Bloomington.

What do I need to bring to testing?

  1. Money to cover testing fees, $15.00.
  2. If you are testing for the first time, you will need 2 pieces of ID, one of which must be a photo ID.
  3. If you are upgrading your amateur radio license, please bring your FCC license, and any CSCEs you may have, as well as photocopies of these documents along with your photo ID.

Retesting: If you fail an exam and would like to try again, you may do so if the examiners are willing to stay the extra time to give the test and you pay the $15 VE fee again.
